The answer to the correct number of significant figures is 6.774.

<h3>What is quotient?</h3>

When a number(big) divided smaller number, the answer obtained greater than zero is called a quotient.

Divide 143.6 ÷ 21.2

143.6/21.2 = 1436/212

                  =6.77358

The quotient is rounded to three significant figures after decimal

143.6 ÷ 21.2 = 6.774

Thus, the answer to the correct number of significant figures is 6.774

sweet-ann [11.9K]
<span>373.2 km The formula for velocity at any point within an orbit is v = sqrt(mu(2/r - 1/a)) where v = velocity mu = standard gravitational parameter (GM) r = radius satellite currently at a = semi-major axis Since the orbit is assumed to be circular, the equation is simplified to v = sqrt(mu/r) The value of mu for earth is 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 Now we need to figure out how many seconds one orbit of the space station takes. So 86400 / 15.65 = 5520.767 seconds And the distance the space station travels is 2 pi r, and since velocity is distance divided by time, we get the following as the station's velocity 2 pi r / 5520.767 Finally, combining all that gets us the following equality v = 2 pi r / 5520.767 v = sqrt(mu/r) mu = 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 2 pi r / 5520.767 s = sqrt(3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r) Square both sides 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^2 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r Multiply both sides by r 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^3 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 Divide both sides by 1.29527 * 10^-6 s^2 r^3 = 3.0773498781296 * 10^20 m^3 Take the cube root of both sides r = 6751375.945 m Since we actually want how far from the surface of the earth the space station is, we now subtract the radius of the earth from the radius of the orbit. For this problem, I'll be using the equatorial radius. So 6751375.945 m - 6378137.0 m = 373238.945 m Converting to kilometers and rounding to 4 significant figures gives 373.2 km</span>

The photons of different light waves:
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: contain different amounts of energy

Explanation:

The energy E of a photon is given by:

E=h\nu

Where:

h=6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s} is the Planck constant

\nu is the frequency of the light which is inversely related to the wavelength.

Now, if we have photons of different light waves, this means we have photons with different frequencies.

As the energy of the photon depends on its frequency:

Photons of different light waves <u>contain different amounts of energy.</u>
