The number of significant digits to the answer of the following problem is four.

<h3>What are the significant digits?</h3>

The number of digits rounded to the approximate integer values are called the significant digits.

The following problem is

(2.49303 g) * (2.59 g) / (7.492 g) =

On solving we get

= 0.86184566204

The answer is approximated to  0.86185

Thus, the significant digits must be four.

Suppose a 4.0-kg projectile is launched vertically with a speed of 8.0 m/s. What is the maximum height the projectile reaches?
eduard

Answer:

h = 3.3 m (Look at the explanation below, please)

Explanation:

This question has to do with kinetic and potential energy. At the beginning (time of launch), there is no potential energy- we assume it starts from the ground. There, is, however, kinetic energy

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Plug in the numbers = \frac{1}{2}(4.0)(8^{2})

Solve = 2(64) = 128 J

Now, since we know that the mechanical energy of a system always remains constant in the absence of outside forces (there is no outside force here), we can deduce that the kinetic energy at the bottom is equal to the potential energy at the top. Look at the diagram I have attached.

Potential energy = mgh = (4.0)(9.8)(h) = 39.2(h)

Kinetic energy = Potential Energy

128 J = 39.2h

h = 3.26 m

h= 3.3 m (because of significant figures)

If a cart of a roller coaster has a mass of 250kg and is at a height of 14 meters. What is the cart's potential energy?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

3430000 J

Explanation:

The formula for potential energy is PE=mgh.

M being the mass, g being the force of gravity, and h being the height.

First thing you want to do is convert 250 kg to g (grams).

From there you get 25000g and you have to multiply that by 14m and 9.8m/s^2 (the force of gravity is constant, at least on earth).

A motorboat maintained a constant speed of 15 miles per hour relative to the water in going 10 miles upstream and then returning
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

speed of current is 5 mile/hr

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

speed of motorboat = 15 miles/hr relative with water

let c is speed of current

15-c is speed of boat at  upstream

15+c is speed of boat at downstream

we know that

travel time=distance/speed

\frac{10}{15-c} +\frac{10}{15+c} = 1.5

150+10c+150-10c=1.5(15-c)(15+c)

300=1.5(225-c^2)

300=337.5-1.5c^2

200=225-c^2

c^2=25

c = 5

so speed of current is 5 mile/hr

The speed of light is 3.00×108m/s. How long does it take for light to travel from Earth to the Moon and back again? Express your
bija089 [108]

Answer:

v = 3×10^8 m/s

s= 384,400 km= 3.84×10^8 m/s

t = ?

v = s/t = 2s/t

t = 2s/v

t = (2×3.84×10^8) ÷ 3×10^8

t = 2.56 seconds

Explanation:

Earth's moon is the brightest object in our

night sky and the closest celestial body. Its

presence and proximity play a huge role in

making life possible here on Earth. The moon's gravitational pull stabilizes Earth's wobble on its axis, leading to a stable climate.

The moon's orbit around Earth is elliptical. At perigee — its closest approach — the moon comes as close as 225,623 miles (363,104 kilometers). At apogee — the farthest away it gets — the moon is 252,088 miles (405,696

km) from Earth. On average, the distance fromEarth to the moon is about 238,855 miles (384,400 km). According to NASA , "That means 30 Earth-sized planets could fit in between Earth and the moon."

HELP PLEASE
4vir4ik [10]

Recall this kinematic equation:

a = \frac{Vi+Vf}{Δt}

This equation gives the acceleration of the object assuming it IS constant (the velocity changes at a uniform rate).

a is the acceleration.

Vi is the initial velocity.

Vf is the final velocity.

Δt is the amount of elapsed time.


Given values:

Vi = 0 m/s (the car starts at rest).

Vf = 25 m/s.

Δt = 10 s


Substitute the terms in the equation with the given values and solve for a:

a = \frac{0+25}{10}

<h3>a = 2.5 m/s²</h3>
