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

To reduce inductive reactance, what devices are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer : Capacitors

Explanation : Capacitors are normally  placed on transmission or distribution lines when to reduce inductive reactance.

This is because it enhances electromechanical and voltage stability , limit voltage dips at network nodes and reduces the power loss.

So, we can say that inductive reactance normally replace by the capacitors.
