Since there is no decimal point in the number given above, the counting for the number of the significant figures will start from the left. Then, the first zero from the left is insignificant. Therefore, in this number there are 6 significant figures.

Answer:

6

Explanation:

The rules which we have to use to find the number of significant figures here are given below:

1. If a number does not contain a decimal point, then the zeros between two non zero digits are significant.

2. the trailing zeros are not significant.

The number is

4,032, 010 m/s

so, the zero between 4 and 3 is significant

the zero between 2 and 1 is significant

the zero at the last is not significant

So, the number of significant figures are 6.

A rotating light is located 13 feet from a wall. The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds. Find the rate at which the li
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

29.2 ft/s

Explanation:

The distance of the light's projection on the wall

y = 13 tan θ

where θ is the light's angle from perpendicular to the wall.

The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds, that is, 2π in 3 seconds,

Angular speed = w = (2π/3)

w = (θ/t)

θ = wt = (2πt/3)

(dθ/dt) = (2π/3)

y = 13 tan θ

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (dθ/dt)

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (2π/3)

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² θ

when θ = 15°

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² (15°)

(dy/dt) = 29.2 ft/s

Which illustrates the law of conservation of matter? A. producers because they create new matter B. decomposers because they des
Klio2033 [76]

D. compost bins because they recycle matter into a new form

Explanation:

  • The law of conservation of matter is about the creation and how matter is being transferred. According to the law, the matter cannot be destroyed. The matter should always be transferred from one form to another in the universe. There is never destruction of matter happens. There is also one more point to it, as it cannot be destroyed it also cannot be created.
  • Here in the options, option A tells us the creation which is not possible, option B says about the destruction of matter which is not true according to the law, C is about storing the matter which will not happen because its get transferred and D is the correct option because it talks about the recycle/ transfer of matter.

student built a simple heat engine that could lift masses. If the heat engine takes in 300 J of heat and loses 50 J to the envir
k0ka [10]

Answer:

So it will lift the mass by h = 17 m

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that

Q_1 = W + Q_2

here we know that

Q_1 = 300 J

Q_2 = 50 J

now we have

W = 300 - 50

W = 250 J

so work done by the engine is 250 J

now we have

W = mgh

250 = 1.5 \times 9.81 \times h

h = 17 m

awhite billiard ball with mass mw = 1.47 kg is moving directly to the right with a speed of v = 3.01 m/s and collides elasticall
pochemuha

Answer:

speed of white ball is 1.13 m/s and speed of black ball is 2.78 m/s

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy

KE = 6.66 J

Explanation:

Since there is no external force on the system of two balls so here total momentum of two balls initially must be equal to the total momentum of two balls after collision

So we will have

momentum conservation along x direction

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1x} + m_2v_{2x}

now plug in all values in it

1.47 \times 3.01 + 0 = 1.47 v_1cos68 + 1.47 v_2cos22

so we have

3.01 = 0.375v_1 + 0.927v_2

similarly in Y direction we have

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1y} + m_2v_{2y}

now plug in all values in it

0 + 0 = 1.47 v_1sin68 - 1.47 v_2sin22

so we have

0 = 0.927v_1 - 0.375v_2

v_2 = 2.47 v_1

now from 1st equation we have

3.01 = 0.375 v_1 + 0.927(2.47 v_1)

v_1 = 1.13 m/s

v_2 = 2.78 m/s

so speed of white ball is 1.13 m/s and speed of black ball is 2.78 m/s

Also we know that since this is an elastic collision so here kinetic energy is always conserved to

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy

KE = \frac{1}{2}(1.47)(3.01^2)

KE = 6.66 J
