Answer:

A) 3.6 cm

Explanation:

Accuracy comes down to how precisely you can read the length on a given scale. Here since the smallest increment is centimeter, we can go only one decimal beyond to estimate. This is because you can usually estimate to only one decimal place beyond the closest marks on any measuring.

So, the answer should be 3.6 cm.

Here's a document that explains it well: https://www.auburn.wednet.edu/cms/lib03/WA01001938/Centricity/Domain/1360/1_Uncertainty.pdf

Hope that's right!

Effectus [21]

Answer:

The heat required is 1262.91 joules or 1.26 kilojoules.

Explanation:

The quantity of heat (Q) required to raise the temperature of a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = ?

Mass of aluminum sample = 33.0g

C = 0.89 J/g℃

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 68°C - 25°C = 43°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 33.0g x 0.89 J/g℃ x 43°C

Q = 1262.91 J

Since the heat in joules is 1262.91, obtain heat in kilojoules.

If 1000 joules = 1 kilojoules

1262.91 joules = Z

To get Z, cross multiply

Z x 1000 = 1262.91 x 1

1000Z = 1262.91

Z = 1262.91 / 1000

Z = 1.26291 kilojoules (when placed as 3 significant figures, Z is 1.26 kilojoules)

Thus, the heat required is 1262.91 joules or 1.26 kilojoules.
