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

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

n = 1,875

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is constant (c) and in a material medium it is

          v = d / t

The refractive index of a material is defined by

         n = c / v

         

Let's look for the speed of light in the material, in general the length that light travels is known, this value is high, x = 1, when we place a block on the road, a small amount is lengthened by the length of the block, which in general is despised

These measurements are made on a digital oscilloscope that allows to stop the signals and measure their differences, that is, the zero is taken when the first ray arrives and the time for the second ray is measured,

         

         v = d / t

         v = 1 / 6.25 10⁻⁹

         v = 1.6 10⁸ m / s

we calculate the refractive index

        n = 3 10⁸ / 1.6 10⁸

        n = 1,875
