43.278 kg - 28.1 g use significant figures rule

Physics
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]3 years ago
3 0
You cannot directly subtract the given values because their units are different. To be consistent, let's convert kilograms to grams with the conversion that 1,000 g = 1 kg.

43.278 kg(1,000 g/1 kg) - 28.1 g = 43249.9 grams

In subtraction, you will base the number of significant figures to the least of the given data. Since 28.1 has 3 significant figures, the answer should also contain 3 significant figures. Thus, it is much more convenient to report it in terms of kilograms.

43249.9 grams * 1 kg/ 1,000 g = 43.2 kg

What statements correctly describe theories
elixir [45]

Theories result from several repeated experiments.

Theories explain observations and hypotheses.

Theories may be revised over time.

Explanation:

Scientific theories are purely explanations into an observation and hypothesis. The are general binding explanations that have been developed from several tests.

  • Theories are products of different stages of experiments in their own regard.
  • For a theory to be accepted by the scientific community, its hypothesis statement must be:
  1. Testable
  2. Repeated
  3. Falsifiable
  • Based on new evidence, a theory may be revised with time. One of such is the Dalton's atomic theory with a modern atomic theory version now.

A particle is confined to the x-axis between x = 0 and x = 1 nm. The potential energy U = 0 inside this region and U is infinite
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to heisenberg uncertainty Principle

Δx Δp ≥ h / 4π , where Δx  is uncertainty in position , Δp is uncertainty in momentum .

Given

Δx = 1 nm

Δp ≥ h /1nm x  4π

≥ 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ / 10⁻⁹ x  4 π

≥  . 5254 x ⁻²⁵

h / λ ≥  . 5254 x ⁻²⁵

 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ /. 5254 x ⁻²⁵ ≥ λ  

12.56 x 10⁻⁹ ≥ λ  

longest wave length = 12.56 n m
