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 is the longest wavelength of light that will emit electrons from a metal whose work function is 3.70 eV
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

h f = Wf + K

where the total energy available is h f, Wf is the work function or the work needed to remove the electron and K is the kinetic energy of the removed electron

If K = zero then hf = Wf

Wf = h f = h c / λ    or

λ = h c / Wf = 6.63E-34 * 3.0E8 / (3.7 * 1.6E-19)

λ = 6.63 * 3 / (3.7 * 1.6) E-7 = 3.36E-7

This would be 3360 angstroms or 336 millimicrons

Visible light = 400-700 millimicrons

what are the three types of solenoids, which one is the most common, and which one is used in pinball machines?​
amm1812

Answer:

The types of solenoids are: AC Laminated Solenoid , DC Solenoid , Linear Solenoid ,and Rotary Solenoid.

Explanation:

  • The main purpose of solenoid is to generate the controlled magnetic field that can be used in many forms.
  • The most common use of solenoid is done in the pinball game.
  • The Flipper solenoid that uses the two coil are used in the mechanism of pinball machines.
  • One coil of the solenoid is supplied with high electric current where as other one has the weak current flowing through it.
