larisa [96]

You are sitting at the center of a large turntable at an amusement park as it is set spinning freely. You decide to crawl towards the edge of the turntable. Rotational speed will decrease

There is no external torque

hence , the angular momentum of the table is conserved

L (initial) = L ( final)

since , L = m*v*r

where

m = mass

v = velocity

r = radius

If the person is crawled towards the outer rim, then the rotational inertia of the turntable will increase. In order to conserve the angular momentum , its rotational speed will decrease as mass and radius cannot be altered .

Which is the correct product of the significant figures 3278 and 42?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

$1.4\cdot 10^5$

Explanation:

In multiplications or divisions, the result must be written using a number of significant figures equal to the smallest number of significant figures contained in the original numbers.

For instance, in this case the two numbers are:

3278 --> 4 significant figures

42 --> 2 significant figures

So, the product must be written using 2 significant figures.

Calculating the product, we get:

$3278\cdot 42=137676$
