Of course it is not -16.422 because you are warned about significant digit.

The result is -16.422000 but if you consider the significant digits, the answer is -16.

That's right.

The greatest number in the multiplication process is the multiplier (5.1)

Now how many significant digits does 5.1 have? 2 significant digits (<u>5</u>.<u>1</u>)

Now the answer should also have 2 significant digits.

-16.422

Take the first 2 digits from the left.

-<u>16</u>.422

The underlined number is the product of the two numbers, in terms of significant digits.

A 71-kg swimmer dives horizontally off a 500-kg raft. If the diver's speed immediately after leaving the raft is 6m/s, what is t
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Momentum is used to measure the quantity of motion in an object. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Momentum = mass * velocity

The principle of conservation of momentum states that momentum cannot be created or destroyed but  can be transferred. Therefore the momentum before and after an action is equal.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Let m be the mass of the diver, M be the mass of the raft, u be the initial velocity of the diver, U be the initial velocity of the raft, v be the final velocity of the diver and V be the final velocity of the raft.

m = 71 kg, M = 500 kg, v = 6 m/s

Initial both the raft and diver are at rest, hence u and U is zero, hence:

mu + MU = mv + MV

71(0) + 500(0) = 71(6) + 500(V)

0 = 426 + 500(V)

500(V) = -426

V = -426/500

V = -0.852 m/s

In a thunderstorm, the thunder occurs at the same time as lightning. Explain how does a person hears the thunder 5s after he see
sergey [27]

Answer:

If you count the number of seconds between the flash of lightning and the sound of thunder, and then divide by 5, you'll get the distance in miles to the lightning: 5 seconds = 1 mile, 15 seconds = 3 miles, 0 seconds = very close. Keep in mind that you should be in a safe place while counting.
