Answer:
<em>The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits</em>
Explanation:
<u>Significant Digits
</u>
These are digits that contribute to the significance of the number. Some rules apply to discard the non-significant digits like:
- Leading zeros
- Trailing zeros (with exceptions)
Our number is 0.0217 has two leading zeros before the 2 because they only occupy space to indicate the order of magnitude of the number. Only the 2,1,7 are significant digits, thus
The number 0.0217 has 3 significant digits
Answer:
a) W=12166.20876 J
b) U= -12166.20876 J
Explanation:
No. of moles, n = 8.41
Change of temperature, ΔT = T1 - T2
= 395 - 279
= 116 K
For monatomic gas, γ = 5/3
γ -1 = 2 /3
Solution:
(a)
Work done,
plugging values we get
Ans:
12166.20876 J
Work done, W = + 12166.20876 J
(b)
From first law of thermodynamics, dQ = U + W
but, dQ = 0
( adiabatic process)
Hence, U = - W
= - 12166.20876 J
Ans:
Change in internal energy, U = - 12166.20876 J
The gel has a density similar to that of skin, so very little of the incident ultrasonic wave is lost by reflection.
Answer:
6. 9.4 m
7. 1050 m/s.
Explanation:
6. Determination of the wavelength
Velocity (v) = 30 m/s
Frequency (f) = 3.2 Hz
Wavelength (λ) =?
v = λf
30 = λ × 3.2
Divide both side by 3.2
λ = 30 / 3.2
λ = 9.4 m
Thus, the wavelength of the wave is 9.4 m.
7. Determination of the speed of the wave.
Wavelength (λ) = 350 m
Frequency (f) = 3 Hz
Velocity (v) =.?
v = λf
v = 350 × 3
v = 1050 m/s
Thus, the speed of the wave is 1050 m/s
