Sage measured her rectangular house as 15.24 m long and 9.1 m wide. Using her calculator, she multiplied the length by the width

to determine that the area is 138.684 m2. What should she do next to express this value in proper significant digits?

The next step for Sage to express the value she multiplied in proper significant digits is to round up the area to the correct number of significant figures.

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

Significant figures are digits that is meaningful with respect to the precision of a measurement.

In other words a digit that is nonzero, followed by a nonzero digit, or (for trailing zeroes) justified by the precision of the derivation or measurement.

According to this question, Sage measured her rectangular house as 15.24 m long and 9.1 m wide. Using her calculator, she multiplied the length by the width to determine that the area is 138.684 m².

  • Decimal notation: 138.684
  • No. of significant figures: 6
  • No. of decimals: 3
  • Scientific notation: 1.38684 × 10²

An electron in a mercury atom jumps from level a to level g by absorbing a single
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

7.39ev

Explanation:

Energy levels are found inside the atom. Electrons occupy these energy levels depending on the energy they possess. Electrons can move from one energy level to another due to absorption or emission of a photon or other factors. As the electron, jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level emitting a photon of measurable frequency, the photon carries energy equal to the amount of energy between the gap of the levels. This idea was first proposed by Neils Bohr and became the forerunner of the wave mechanical model of the atom.

Hence the energy of a photon is the energy of the gap between the two energy levels. Since Ea= 2.48ev and Eg= 10.38 ev.

If an electron jumps from Ea to Eg, the energy of the photon absorbed is given by;

E=Eg-Ea

E= 10.38ev - 2.48ev

E= 7.39ev

JUST PLZ HELP!!! Why does the lightbulb in the right electrical circuit turn on but not the one on the left?
jekas [21]

In the open circuit the current can not flow from one end of the power source to the other. Because of this there is no current flow, and therefore the light does not turn on.

For a submarine, identify when it will have the GREATEST buoyant force acting on it. Assume that neither the volume of the subma
lidiya [134]

Answer: a, c, and g

Explanation:

Buoyant Force is an upward force acting on submerged object equal to weight of fluid displaced by the submerged object.

If no part is submerged (V = 0) that is volume. Therefore there is Zero Buoyant Force.

Fully submerged produces greatest buoyant force since greatest amount of fluid was displaced.

Whenever it is fully submerged it will have the greatest buoyant force.

Buoyant Force DOES NOT Depend on Depth

A fully submerged object displaces its volume in fluid

A floating object displaces its weight in fluid.
