Answer:

Option C. 16.6 m/s

Explanation:

To round this 16.558 m/s to 3sf, we need to count the number beginning from 1. When we get to the 3rd number( ie 5), we'll examine the fourth number(i.e 5)to see if it less than five or greater. If it less than five, then we'll discard it. But if it five or greater, we'll approximate it and add it to the 3rd number.

So.

16.558 m/s = 16.6m/s to 3sf

The diameter of a copper wire is thought to be approximately 0.3mm. Which instrument should be used to obtain a more accurate me
erica [24]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The correct answer should be the micrometer.

<u>The micrometer is an instrument that is capable of measuring the component of an object to very high precision. It is used to obtain accurate measurements in engineering.</u>

<em>In the case of the copper wire, the diameter of 0.3 mm was an approximation and a more accurate measure of the diameter would be obtained by using the micrometer.</em>

The correct option is C.

A coin completes 18 spins in 12 seconds. The centripetal acceleration of the edge of the coin is 2.2 m/s2. The radius of the coi
nlexa [21]
In order to find the radius of the coin, we need to use:

Ac = V^2 r

In which,  
Ac = acceleration of the coin = 2.2 m/s^2 
V= rotational Speed  =  (18/12) * 2πr
r= Radius

so,
<span>2.2 = 9(π^2)(r^2) / r 
</span><span>= 9(π^2)r
</span>
<span>r = 2.2 / 9(π^2) = 0.02476740044 m . . .or you can rounded it up to 0.025 m</span>
