in positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are _______ significant?

Physics
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

If a number of less than 1, then the number has a decimal point like

0.085, 0.008 e.t.c.

The zeros before the none zero digit are insignificant. The significant figure is 8 and 5.

But if there a zero between the none zero e.g. 0.0087056

Here the zero between 7 and 5 is significant, then the significant numbers are 8,7,0,5,6

But if the zero is not in between the none zero digit, then the zero is insignificant

E.g 0.05800

The last two zero is insignificant, the significant number is 5 and 8

So, If a positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are NOT significant.

If a specimen was being viewed using a 20x objective lens and 10x ocular lens, what would be the total magnification
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

As Per Given Information

20x objective lens was used by specimen

10x ocular lens was also used by him.

we have to find the total magnification.

For calculating the total magnification we 'll simply do multiplication

Total Magnification = 20x × 10x

Total Magnification = 200x

So , the total magnification will be 200x .

How much heat is required to convert 5.53 g of ice at -12.0 ∘C to water at 24.0 ∘C? (The heat capacity of ice is 2.09 J/(g⋅∘C),
fredd [130]

Answer:

2.55 × 10³ J =2.55 kJ

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of ice =  37.8 J / mol °C

Specific heat capacity of water = 76.0 J/ mol °C

Ice at -12 °C is converted to ice at 0 °C by absorbing heat Q₁

Ice at 0°C melts to water at 0 °C. Let Heat  absorbed during this phase change be Q₂ .

Let heat  absorbed to raise the temperature of water from 0 C to 24°C be Q₃ .

Total heat = Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃

Q₁ = (37.8 j/mol C )(5.53 g /18.01532 g/ mol )( 0-(-12)) = 139.23749 j

Q₂ =(5.53 g/18.01532 g H₂O / mol ) (6.02 x10³ j) = 1847.905 j

Q₃ = (76 j/mol C) ( (5.53 g/18.01532 g H₂O / mol )(24-0) = 559.8968 j

Total Heat required = Q = 139.23749 j + 1847.905 j + 559.8968 j

= 2547.039 j = 2.55 × 10³ J =2.55 kJ

A typical wall outlet voltage is 120 volts in the United States. Personal MP3 players require much smaller voltages, typically 2
butalik [34]

Answer:        

Number of turns in secondary will be 7

Explanation:

We have given primary voltage V_p=120volt

Number of turns in the primary is N_p=3575

Secondary voltage is given V_s=235mV=0.235volt

We have to find the number of turns in secondary

We know that \frac{N_p}{N_s}=\frac{V_p}{V_s}

So \frac{3575}{N_s}=\frac{120}{0.235}

N_s=6.60

As the number of turns can not be in decimal so number of turns will be 7

How do resistors in parallel affect the total resistance?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

They're going to increase the total resistance as R_{T} = \sum\limits_{i=1}^N \left(\frac{1}{R_i} \right)^{-1}

Explanation:

If the resistors are in parallel, the potential difference is the same for each resistor. But the total current is the sum of the currents that pass through each of the resistors. Then

I = I_1 + I_2 + ... + I_N

where

I_i = \frac{V_i}{R_i}

but

V_i = V_j = V for i,j= 1, 2,..., N

so

I = \frac{V}{R_1}+ \frac{V}{R_2} + ... + \frac{V}{R_N} = \left(\frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2} + ... + \frac{1}{R_N}\right)V = \frac{V}{R_T}

where

R_T = \left(\frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2} + ... + \frac{1}{R_N}\right)^{-1} =\sum\limits_{i=1}^N \left(\frac{1}{R_i} \right)^{-1}
