Answer:
(a) 2 (b) 4 (c) 4
Explanation:
Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.
Rules for significant figures:
- Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
- All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 654, 6.54 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.
- All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 5.005 and 50.05 all have four significant figures.
- All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0078 has two significant figures.
- All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 45.00 and 450.0 all have four significant figures.
- All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example : 8000 has one significant figure.
As per question,
0.000054 has 2 significant figures.
3.001 x 10⁵ has 4 significant figures.
5.600 has 4 significant figures.
Planck's constant. A physical constant adopted in 2011 by the CGPM.
Answer: Option D and E
Explanation: Across the electromagnet spectrum, the frequency increases but the wavelength reduces.
This implies that radio waves have the longest wavelength but the smallest frequency, while gamma rays have the shortest wavelength but the highest frequency.
This implies that there is an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency.
Of all the technologies listed above, wireless internet has the highest frequency hence making it have the shortest wavelength.
Also by comparing values from the data given to us above, it is possible for some wireless internet device to operate within the same frequency range of the microwave.
Answer:
1.85 m/s
102.438 m
Explanation:
From vector motion
The resultant velocity

The magnitude of speed of the speed of the boat relative to a stationary shore observer is 1.85 m/s
The distance covered is 229 m
Time = Distance / Speed

Distance = Speed of current × Time
Distance = 0.756×135.5 = 102.438 m
The boat will be 102.438 m from the initial position is the boat when it reaches the opposite shore
