How many significant figures does 0.00340 have?

2 answers:

8 0

3 because the 0 is behind the decimal and 34 and the other zeros arent behind a non zero digit and 3 and 4 are non zero digits

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.

In a physics laboratory experiment, a coil with 200 turns enclosing an area of 13.1 cm2 is rotated during the time interval 3.10

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

A) $\Phi=83.84\times 10^{-9}$

B) $\Phi=0 Wb$

C) $emf=5.4090\times 10^{-4}V$

Explanation:

Given that:

no. of turns i the coil, $n=200$

area of the coil, $a=13.1 \times 10^{-4}\,m^2$

time interval of rotation, $t=3.1\times 10^{-2}\,s$

intensity of magnetic field, $B=6.4\times 10^{-5}\,T$

(A)

Initially the coil area is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

So, magnetic flux is given as:

$\Phi=B.a\,cos \theta$ ..................................(1)

$\theta$ is the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field lines. Area vector is always perpendicular to the area given. In this case area vector is parallel to the magnetic field.

$\Phi=6.4\times 10^{-5}\times 13.1 \times 10^{-4}\, cos 0^{\circ}$

$\Phi=83.84\times 10^{-9} Wb$

(B)

In this case the plane area is parallel to the magnetic field i.e. the area vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

∴ $\theta=90^{\circ}$

From eq. (1)

$\Phi=6.4\times 10^{-5}\times 13.1 \times 10^{-4}\, cos 90^{\circ}$

$\Phi=0 Wb$

(C)

According to the Faraday's Law we have:

$emf=n\frac{B.a}{t}$

$emf=\frac{200\times 6.4\times 10^{-5}\times 13.1 \times 10^{-4}}{3.1\times 10^{-2}}$

$emf=5.4090\times 10^{-4}V$

Saturn moves in an orbit around the Sun with radius 10 AU. How many degrees does it move on the Celestial in one year? (Hint: Ca

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

B. About 12 degrees

Explanation:

The orbital period is calculated using the following expression:

T = 2π*( $\sqrt{\frac{r^3}{Gm}}$ )

Where r is the distance of the planet to the sun, G is the gravitational constant and m is the mass of the sun.

Now, we don't actually need to solve the values of the constants, since we now that the distance from the sun to Saturn is 10 times the distance from the sun to the earth. We now this because 1 AU is the distance from the earth to the sun.

Now, we divide the expression used to calculate the orbital period of Saturn by the expression used to calculate the orbital period of the earth. Notice that the constants will cancel and we will get the rate of orbital periods in terms of the distances to the sun:

$\frac{Tsaturn}{Tearth}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{rSaturn^3}{rEarth^3} } = \sqrt{10^3}}$

Knowing that the orbital period of the earth is 1 year, the orbital period of Saturn will be $\sqrt{10^3}}$ years, or 31.62 years.

We find the amount of degrees it moves in 1 year:

$1year * \frac{360degrees}{31.62years} = 11.38 degrees$

or about 12 degrees.

What is the SI unit for kinetic energy

trapecia [35]

The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and
   Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is    (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

   [Energy] =   (Newton) (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
   (kilogram-meter/sec²) (meter)

   = kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
   Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.
