Greetings!

"<span>How many significant figures does 0.00340 have?"...

A significant figure is:
-A non zero number
-A zero in between non zero numbers
-Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point

Therefore, this number has three significant figures:
3,4,0

Hope this helps.

A campground official wants to measure the distance across an irregularly-shaped lake, but can't do so directly. He picks a poin
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

149 m

Explanation:

The distances across the lake is forming a triangle.  

let the distance between the point and the left side be 'x'

and the distance between the point and the right be 'y'

and the distance across the lake be 'z' and the angle opposite to 'z' be 'Z' given:

∠Z = 83°

x = 105 m

y = 119 m

Now, applying the Law of Cosines, we get  

z² = x² + y² - 2xycos(Z)  

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

z² = 105² + 119² - 2×105×119×cos(83°)

or

z = √22140.48

or

z = 148.796 m ≈ 149 m

The point is 149 m across the lake

A ruler of length 0.30m is pivoted at its centre. Equal and opposite forces of magnitude 2.0N are applied to the ends of the rul
kow [346]

Answer:

0.3858 Nm

Explanation:

The torque of the couple is the dot product of the force vector and the couple vector from 1 end of the ruler to the center. This equals to the product of their magnitude times the cosine() of the angle made by their direction:

T = \vec{F} \cdot \vec{s} = Fscos(50^0) = 2 * 0.3 * 0.643 = 0.3858 Nm
