in positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are _______ significant?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

If a number of less than 1, then the number has a decimal point like

0.085, 0.008 e.t.c.

The zeros before the none zero digit are insignificant. The significant figure is 8 and 5.

But if there a zero between the none zero e.g. 0.0087056

Here the zero between 7 and 5 is significant, then the significant numbers are 8,7,0,5,6

But if the zero is not in between the none zero digit, then the zero is insignificant

E.g 0.05800

The last two zero is insignificant, the significant number is 5 and 8

So, If a positive numbers less than 1, the zeros between the decimal point and a non-zero number are NOT significant.

A train rolls past a stationary observer. To him, the train is moving at a speed of 23m/s west, and a woman on the train is movi
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.7 seconds.

Explanation:

Woman's velocity relative to train (23 m/s - 22.4 m/s) = 0.6 m/s

Distance woman wants to travel = 13m

To find how long she will take to move 13m relative to the train, take the distance she wants to travel divided by her velocity relative to the train.

(13m)/(0.6 m/s) = 21.6667 seconds or 21.7 seconds.  

Therefore, it will take the woman 21.7 seconds to move 13m.

The magnitude of the magnetic field B a distance r from a long straight wire is B = μ 0 I 2 π r where μ 0 is the permeability co
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The magnetic field is lowest for largest distance and highest when distance is least.

Explanation:

The magnitude of magnetic field strength at a distance 'r' from a long straight wire carrying current 'I' is given as:

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}\\Where,\mu_0\to permeability\ constant\ of\ free\ space

Now, as per question, the distance 'r' is varied while keeping the current constant in the wire.

As seen from the above formula, the magnitude of magnetic field strength for a constant current varies inversely with the distance 'r'. This means that, as the value of 'r' increases, the magnitude of magnetic field strength decreases and vice-versa.

Therefore, the magnitude of magnetic field strength is maximum when the distance 'r' is least and the magnetic field is minimum for the largest distance.

Example:

If B_1, B_2,\ and\ B_3 are the magnitudes of magnetic field strengths for distances r_1,r_2, \ and\ r_3 respectively such that r_1. Now, as per the explanation above, the order of magnitudes of magnetic field strength is:

B_1>B_2>B_3

Hans Christian Ørsted observed that when a current-carrying wire was brought near a compass, the compass needle moved.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: magnet, motor

Explanation :

Hans Christian Orsted was the scientist who gives the relation between electricity and magnetism. He found that the magnetic needle gets deflected on the application of electric current to the circuit.

He observed that the current carrying wire acted like a magnet.  

In 1821 Michael Faraday understands Orsted's work and invented electric motor. An electric motor is a device which is used to convert electrical energy to mechanical energy.
