Answer:

v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

given,

speed of light in vacuum = 299,792,458 m/s

speed of light in scientific notation to three significant figures

v = 2.99792458  x  10⁸ m/s

by rounding off the speed to three significant figure.

v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

On the fourth place the value is greater than 5 so, on the third place 1 will be added.

now, the speed with three significant figure comes out to be

v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

The mass of a meteoroid was found to be 1.24 × 107 kilograms. Write the mass in standard notation.
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The value we are given in the question is 1.24 * 10^7. This form of writing number is called scientific notation. The standard notation is the normal, regular way of writing numbers. Scientific notation and standard notations are interchangeable.

1.24 * 10^7 written in standard notation will be = 1.24 * 10000000 = 12400000.

Thus, the mass of the meteoroid was 12400000 kg.

A car drives for 30 km with a speed of 30m/s. How much time does it take the car to travel this distance?
Artist 52 [7]

                   Time  =  (distance)  /  (speed)

                           =  (30 km)  /  (30 m/s)

                           =  (30,000 m)  /  (30 m/s)

                           =  (30,000 / 30)  sec

                           =      1,000 seconds

                           =      16 minutes  40 seconds
