Answer:

B. 81

Explanation:

Answer: = 81 (real number)

Answer:= 8.1 × 101 ( In scientific notation)

Answer:= 8.1e1 (scientific e notation)

Rule: All the number before the power of 10 are considered as significant figures.

number of significant figures: 2

Answer:

B. 81

Explanation:

When you multiply two numbers, round the answer to the least number of significant figures available. 67.6 has three significant figures, and 1.2 has two significant figures. So we round to two significant figures.

Note: I'm not sure what do you mean by "weight 0.05 kg/L". I assume it means the mass per unit of length, so it should be "0.05 kg/m".

Solution:
The fundamental frequency in a standing wave is given by
$f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{m/L} }$
where L is the length of the string, T the tension and m its mass. If we plug the data of the problem into the equation, we find
$f= \frac{1}{2 \cdot 24 m} \sqrt{ \frac{240 N}{0.05 kg/m} }=1.44 Hz$

The wavelength of the standing wave is instead twice the length of the string:
$\lambda=2 L= 2 \cdot 24 m=48 m$

So the speed of the wave is
$v=\lambda f = (48 m)(1.44 Hz)=69.1 m/s$

And the time the pulse takes to reach the shop is the distance covered divided by the speed:
$t= \frac{L}{v}= \frac{24 m}{69.1 m/s}=0.35 s$
