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

rodikova [14]

Answer:

41.4* 10^4 N.m^2/C

Explanation:

given:

E= 4.6 * 10^4 N/C

electric field is 4.6 * 10^4 N/C and square sheet is perpendicular to electric field so, area of vector is parallel to electric field

then electric flux = ∫ E*n dA

                            = ∫ 4.6 * 10^4 * 3*3

                            = 41.4* 10^4 N.m^2/C

Which are examples of a medium? water and air amplitude and wavelength crests and troughs compressions and rarefactions
umka21 [38]

Answer:

water and air

Explanation:

  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point or the source to another  point.
  • Transmission of a wave occurs through a material medium or a vacuum. Therefore a medium is the material through which a wave travels through.
  • The medium may be in gaseous form, slid form or liquid form. Therefore water and air are example of medium of transmission of a wave.
