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

A brave child decides to grab onto an already spinning merry‑go‑round. The child is initially at rest and has a mass of 34.5 kg.

Answer:

I_1 = 32.5 kg m^2

Explanation:

Here as we know that total angular momentum is always conserved for child + round system

so here by angular momentum conservation we have

I_1 \omega_1 = (I_1 + I_2)\omega_2

here we have

I_2 = mR^2 (inertia of boy)

I_2 = (34.5)(1.45^2)

I_2 = 72.5 kg m^2

now we have

I_1(2\pi 55) = (I_1 + 72.5)(2 \pi 17)

I_1 = (I_1 + 72.5)(0.31)

I_1(1 - 0.31) = 22.4

I_1 = 32.5 kg m^2

when an incandescent light bulb is turned on, its thin wire filament heats up quickly. as the temperature of this wire filament
Leno4ka [110]

Well, we usually assume that the resistance of a circuit component
is constant and doesn't change.  But the truth is that for anything
that conducts current, its resistance always increases somewhat
when it warms up. 

For things like light bulbs, electric toasters, space heaters, electric
stove burners, the heat coils in a blow-dryer ... anything that's
designed to be really hot when it's doing its job ... the resistance
of those things increases significantly when they come up to their
operating temperatures.
