<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is C. 3.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given the number '5.80' and we are to indicate the number of significant figures in the given measured number.
According to the rules of significant figures, numbers that are non-zero, zeros between any two significant numbers and the ending zeros in the decimal position are categorized as significant figures.
Therefore, the number 5.80 has 3 significant figures in it.
Answer:
Wave is a disturbance or energy that propagate through medium from one point to other point
So basically it is a flowing energy that flows into the medium and hence medium particles start oscillating about their mean position to and fro.
This motion of medium particles or this to and fro motion is about their mean position and this will always be cyclic or periodic motion
This means the disturbance or energy continuously flow through the medium such that it will change the position of medium particle and this will be cyclic in order
For an example
y(x,t) = Asin(kx - ωt + φ)
So here above equation of wave is a travelling wave in which displacement of medium particle from its mean position is given by "y"
Now we can see that this disturbance depends upon the sine function and it will repeat its same position after every 2 pi time interval as it is cyclic function for this value
Due to this phenomenon of repetition of its same position we can say that it is disturbance of wave is cyclic.

Explanation:
The pressure exerted by vapors or gas on the surface of a liquid is known as vapor pressure.
This means that weaker is the intermolecular forces present in a substance more easily it can form vapors. As a result, it will have high vapor pressure.
As substance B has high vapor pressure which means that it has weak intermolecular forces.
Also, stronger is the intermolecular forces present in a substance more will be its boiling point. Hence, more energy or temperature is required to break the bonds. Hence, substance A has higher boiling point and high heat of vaporization.
When surrounding pressure is less than or equal to its vapor pressure then substance B boils into the gas phase. Hence, substance B will be a gas at 300 mm Hg.
Therefore, we can conclude that characteristics of the two substances will be as follows.
(a) Substance B - has weaker intermoclcular
(b) Substance A - has a higher boiling point
(c) Substance B - is a gas at 300 mm Hg
(d) Substance A - has a higher heat of vaporization
Answer:
gamma rays > X-rays > ultraviolet radiation > visible light > infrared > radio waves.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are those waves that require no material medium for propagation. They can travel through space and they all move at the speed of light.
Electromagnetic waves are composed of both electric and magnetic fields which are mutually at right angles to each other.
The order of decreasing energy of electromagnetic waves is;
gamma rays > X-rays > ultraviolet radiation > visible light > infrared > radio waves.
