What is 2.0 ft × 4 ft, to the correct number of significant figures?

1 answer:

4 0

The correct number of significant figures is always the smallest number of significant figures given. So when you're talking about 2.0 and 4, 4 is the number with smallest number of significant figures, in this case 1 significant figure.

This means that 2.0 ft x 4 ft = 8 ft.

How do oxygen and beryllium atoms transform into oxygen ion O2- and Be2 beryllium ion Be2? tysm

Hoochie [10]

On the whole, the metals burn in oxygen to form a simple metal oxide. Beryllium is reluctant to burn unless it is in the form of dust or powder. Beryllium has a very strong (but very thin) layer of beryllium oxide on its surface, and this prevents any new oxygen getting at the underlying beryllium to react with it.

A racquetball with a mass of 42 g is moving with a horizontal speed of 7 m/s to the right (+x direction). It hits the wall of th

zheka24 [161]

The magnitude of the racquetball's change in momentum is 0.59 kgm/s approximately.

Given that a racquetball with a mass of 42 g is moving with a horizontal speed of 7 m/s to the right (+x direction).

mass m = 42g = 42/1000 = 0.042kg

initial velocity before collision u = 7 m/s

It hits the wall of the court and rebounds to the hitter with a horizontal speed of 7m/s to the left (-x direction). That is,

velocity after collision v = 7 m/s

To calculate the magnitude of the racquetball's change in momentum, we will use the formula below

Change in momentum = Mv - Mu

Since momentum is a vector quantity, we will consider the direction.

Change in momentum = 0.042 x 7 - ( 0.042 x - 7)

Change in momentum = 0.294 + 0.294

Change in momentum = 0.588 kgm/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the racquetball's change in momentum is 0.59 kgm/s approximately.

Determine the volume displaced and then calculate the density of this 54 g sample of brass.

inessss [21]

Answer:

DETAILS IN THE QUESTION INSUFFICIENT TO ANSWER

Explanation:

Assuming the liquid to be water ,

the density $d_{w}$ of water is : $1000kgm^{-3}=1gcm^{-3}$

Buoyant force exerted by a liquid on an object with $V_{imm}$ of it's volume immersed is :

$F_{B}=V_{imm}*d_{l}*g$

where ,

$F_{B}$ is the buoyant force
$d_{l}$ is the density of the liquid
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity

Thus at equilibrium:

$m_{brass}*g=V_{imm}*d_{l}*g\\m_{brass}=V_{imm}*d_{l}\\54=V_{imm}*1\\V_{imm}=54cm^{3}$

from these , we get the density of brass to be $1gcm^{-3}$

which is not possible

How does kinect energy affect the stopping distance of a vehicle traveling at 30 mph compared to the same vehicle traveling at 6

mote1985 [20]

If it is the same vehicle, then the 60mph vehicle has more kinetic energy since it is moving faster. Therefore, it requires more energy to stop, and if it is the same car with the same beak system, the braking distance of the 30mph car will be significantly shorter than the 60mph car.
