<h2><u>Answer</u></h2>

To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use.

<h2><u>Explanation</u></h2>

A vernier caliper is an instrument that is used to measure the diameter of small circular objects such as diameter of a wires, thickness of an iron sheet.

The objects to be measured is place between the jaws of the calipers.

The vernier scale has two scales, the vernier scale and the main scale which is the very top scale. <em>To know where it starts we look where the zero mark of the vernier scale starts. The make just before reaching where the zero mark is marks the value to use. </em>

Multiply the following numbers, using scientific notation and the correct amount of significant digits. 1.003 m⋅3.09 = _____ 3.0

lozanna [386]

Answer

correct answer is 3.10

Explanation:

in this question we have to multiply two numbers 1.003 and 3.09.

1.003 has 4 significant digits and 3.09 has 3 significant digits so answer must have 3 significant digits.

$1.003\times 3.09=3.09927$

$1.003\times 3.09=3.10$

Hope it will help you

The sun rotates once in 25.05 days. That is 601.2 hours. so the sun's rotational speed is 0.0017 rotations per hour. what is the

Margaret [11]

Answer:

$v=2019.09\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

time taken by the sun to complete one revolution, $t=601.2\ hr$

radial distance of the sunspot, $r=6.955\times 10^8\ m.s^{-1}$

<u>Therefore, angular speed of rotation of sun:</u>

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{601.2\times 3600} \ rad.s^{-1}$

<u>Now the tangential velocity of the sunspot can be given by:</u>

$v=r.\omega$

$v=6.955\times 10^8\times \frac{2\pi}{601.2\times 3600}$

$v=2019.09\ m.s^{-1}$

How many significant figures should be written in the sum 4.65g +9.032g+580.0078+540.439g?

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: 1.13 X 10^3 g or 1130 g

Explanation: When you add up everything, you will get 1134.1288 g = 1.11341218 X 10^3. But while adding significant figures, we always look for the least significant figures (here 4.65 has least sig. figures i.e. 3) and take that as a reference to how many significant figures we should have in the answer. (Pretty hard to explain!) Hope you got it!!
