As the number of significant figures increases, the more accurate or precise the measurement is.

<h3>What is significant figure?</h3>

The term significant figures refers to the number of important single digits in the coefficient of an expression in scientific notation.

Significant figures are the digits in a value that are known with some degree of confidence.

The effect of reporting more or fewer figures or digits than are significant;

As the number of significant figures increases, the more accurate or precise the measurement is.

As precision of a measurement increases, so does the number of significant figures.

An organ pipe open at both ends is 1.5 m long. A second organ pipe that is closed at one end and open at the other is 0.75 m lon

telo118 [61]

Answer:

A. 110Hz,220Hz, 330 Hz

Explanation:

for organ open at open both ends;

the length of the organ for the fundamental frequency, L = A---->N + N----->A

A---->N = λ /4 and N----->A = λ /4

L = λ /4 + λ /4 = λ /2

$L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \\\\\lambda = 2L$

λ = 2 x 1.5m = 3.0 m

Wave equation is given by;

V = Fλ

Where;

V is the speed of sound

F is the frequency of the wave

F = V/ λ

F₀ = V / 2L

Where;

F₀ is the fundamental frequency

F₀ = 330 / 2(1.5)

F₀ = 330 / 3

F₀ = 110 Hz

the length of the organ for the first overtone, L = A---->N + N----->A + A----->N + N----->A

L = 4λ /4

L = λ

λ = 1.5 m

F₁ = 330 / 1.5

F₁ = 220 Hz

Thus, F₁ = 2F₀

For open organ at one end

the length of the organ for the fundamental frequency, L = N------A

L = λ /4

λ = 4L

F₀ = V/4L

F₀ = 330 / (4 x 0.75)

F₀ = 110 Hz

the length of the organ for the first overtone, L = N-----N + N-----A

L = λ/2 + λ / 4

L = 3λ /4

F₁ = 3F₀

F₁ = 3 x 110

F₁ = 330 Hz

Thus the fundamental frequency for both organs is 110 Hz,

The first overtone for the organ open at both ends is 220 Hz

The first overtone for the organ open at one end is 330 Hz

The correct option is "A. 110Hz,220Hz, 330 Hz"

A proton with a speed of 3.000×105 m/s has a circular orbit just outside a uniformly charged sphere of radius 7.00 cm. What is t

Rama09 [41]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. The kinetic energy in the object must be maintained and transformed into the potential electrostatic energy. Therefore mathematically

$KE = PE$

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r}$

Here,

m = mass (At this case of the proton)

v = Velocity

k = Coulomb's constant

$q_{1,2}$ = Charge of each object

r= Distance between them

Rearranging to find the second charge we have that

$q_2 = \frac{\frac{1}{2} mv^2 r}{kq_1}$

Replacing,

$q_2 = \frac{\frac{1}{2}(1.67*10^{-27})(3*10^5)^2(7*10^{-2})}{(9*10^9)(1.6*10^{-19})}$

$q_2 = 3.6531nC$

Therefore the charge on the sphere is 3.6531nC

A dragster completed a 402.3-(0.2500-mi) run in 5.023s. If the car had a constant acceleration, what was its acceleration and fi

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

v = 80.092 m/s

a = 15.945 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

The distance completed by the dragster, d = 402.3 m

The time taken by the dragster to complete that distance is, t = 5.023 s

The initial velocity of the dragster, u = 0

The final velocity of the dragster, v = ?

The acceleration of the dragster, a = ?

The velocity of the body is given by the formula

v = d/t m/s

Substituting the above values inn the equation

v = 402.3 m / 5.023 s

= 80.092 m/s

So, the velocity of the dragster is, v = 80.092 m/s

The acceleration of the body is given by the formula

a = (v - u)/t m/s²

Substituting the above values in the equation

= (80.092 - 0) / 5.023

= 15.945 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration of the dragster is, a = 15.945 m/s²

What is force of gravity

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects. At Earth's surface the acceleration of gravity is about 9.8 metres (32 feet) per second per second.
