Answer:

Given that:

a = (\frac{x+ip}{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} and a+= (\frac{x-ip}{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

if a , a+ commutator, it obeys aa^+ = a^+a

First find:

aa^+ = (\frac{x+ip}{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} (\frac{x-ip}{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}

                = (\frac{(x)^2-(ip)^2}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}=(\frac{(x)^2+(p)^2}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}

Now;

a^+a =(\frac{x-ip}{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} (\frac{x+ip}{2})^{\frac{1}{2}} = (\frac{(x)^2-(ip)^2}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}

              =(\frac{(x)^2-(ip)^2}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}=(\frac{(x)^2+(p)^2}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}

therefore, aa^+ = a^+a which implies the operators a and a+ are commutators.

Round off 0.043 to one significant figure
aniked [119]
Hey there :)

0.043
The first 0 before the decimal point is not significant since it is used for cosmetic purpose
The 0 after the decimal is not significant as the 0 is used to locate the decimal point
The 4 is the first nonzero integer and it counts as a significant figure

Therefore, 0.04 will be your answer rounded to 1 s.f
