1 answer:

6 0

In navigation bearing refers to : 1. the direction of motion itself; 2. the direction of a distant object relative to the current course 3.the angle away from North of a distant point as observed at the current point.

There is a thing called absolute bearing, and it refers to the angle between the magnetic North/true North and an object. (e.g. an object of 0 degrees would be dead ahead, whereas and object of 180 degrees would be behind you)

The speed of light in a vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. Which gives this number in three significant digits? 299,000,000. m/s 2.99 x

dexar [7]

Answer: $2.99(10)^{-8} m/s$

Explanation:

When a number is written in scientific notation (representing the number using powers of base ten) it is expressed so that it contains a digit in the place of the units and all other digits after the decimal point, multiplied by the respective exponent.

Then, the significant figures (or significant digits) will be the digits that are before the power of ten.

Now, in the case of the number 299,792,458 if we want to write it with three significant digits, we have to write it in scientific notation as:

$2.99(10)^{-8}$
