How many significant digits are there in the number 1,500

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: This number has three significant figures.

Explanation: Trailing zeros, which are zeros at the end of a number, are significant only if the number has a decimal point. Thus, in 1,500 m, the two trailing zeros are not significant because the number is written without a decimal point.

RP 1 - Specific Heat Capacity GCSE Exam Questions (B.S.G)

Stels [109]

When the temperature of 0.50 kg of water decreases by 22 °C, the energy transferred to the surroundings from the water is -46.2 kJ.

A sample of 0.50 kg of water boils (reaches 100 °C). After a while, its temperature decreases by 22 °C.

We can calculate the energy transferred to the surroundings from the water in the form of heat (Q) using the following expression.

$Q = c \times m \times \Delta T = \frac{4200J}{kg.\° C} \times 0.50kg \times (-22\° C) \times \frac{1kJ}{1000J} = -46.2 kJ$

where,

c: specific heat capacity of water
m: mass of water
ΔT: change in the temperature

When the temperature of 0.50 kg of water decreases by 22 °C, the energy transferred to the surroundings from the water is -46.2 kJ.
