Their difference lies in the prefix used before each root word, atom. The diatomic molecules are composed only of 2 atoms such as that of the diatomic elements: H2, O2, N2, Cl2, etc. On the other hand, polyatomic molecules are made up of three or mole atoms such as NH4+, H2SO4, etc.

Which pair of quantities includes one quantity that increases as the other decreases during simple harmonic motion?
11111nata11111 [884]

Kinetic energy and potential energy pair is the quantity in which one will increase then other will decrease

As we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy will always remain conserved

So here we will have

KE + PE = constant

so here as we move away from mean position the kinetic energy will decrease while at the same time potential energy will increase.

So the pair of potential energy and kinetic energy will satisfy the above condition

A 3600 kg rocket traveling at 2900 m/s is moving freely through space on a journey to the moon. The ground controllers find that
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

m=417.24 kg

Explanation:  

Given Data

Initial mass of rocket  M = 3600 Kg

Initial velocity of rocket vi = 2900 m/s  

velocity of gas vg = 4300  m/s

Θ = 11° angle in degrees

To find

m = mass of gas  

Solution

Let m = mass of gas    

first to find Initial speed with angle given

So

Vi=vi×tanΘ...............tan angle

Vi= 2900m/s × tan (11°)

Vi=563.7 m/s

Now to find mass

m = (M ×vi ×tanΘ)/( vg + vi tanΘ)

put the values as we have already solve vi ×tanΘ

m = (3600 kg ×563.7m/s)/(4300 m/s + 563.7 m/s)

m=417.24 kg

The number of significant figures in 0.060900 is
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

There are <u>5</u> significant figures.

Explanation:

You must start conting your sig figs until you continue to hit zeros at the end. Those zeroes at the end are disregarded. So 0.0609 is where you get your <em>sig figs</em> from.
