We have that

a) L1 = 0.0035600 km = We have this number has 5 significant figures

L2 = 136500 mm =We have this number has 3 significant figures

b) L1 = 0.0035600 km=3.65m

L2 = 136500 mm=136.5m

c) L1 is more accurate

d) L2 is more Precise

From the question we are told

Consider the following two values for measurements of length:

L1 = 0.0035600 km

L2 = 136500 mm

Generally

L1 = 0.0035600 km = We have this number has 5 significant figures

L2 = 136500 mm =We have this number has 3 significant figures

Express each number in proper scientific notation after converting the units to “meters”

L1 = 0.0035600 km=3.65m

L2 = 136500 mm=136.5m

Which of the two is more accurate

Generally

We define accuracy in measurement as the closes of a value measured to the actual value of

Therefore

L_1 is more accurate

We define Precision in measurement as how closely the reoccurring results are close

Therefore

L_2 is more Precise

The net electric charge of an amber rod which has been rubbed with fur is called negative Group of answer choices because amber

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The right option is option E. None of the answer choices given are totally correct.

Explanation:

All insulators normally have an equal amount of positive and negative charges distributed on their surface.

The amber rod (an insulator) is called negative because after the coming together with fur (another insulator), the amber rod rubs off electrons from the fur onto itself and has an overall more negatively charged particles than positively charged particles on its surface.

The fur in turn becomes positive because it has more positive charges than negative on its surface.

So, the convention allows the now rubbed off amber rod to be called negative.

So, it is evident that none of the answer choices are totally correct, the right answer is more of a mix of some of the answer choices and more!

Hope this helps!!

: Do you attract the Earth or the Earth attracts you which one is attracting with a larger force?

seraphim [82]

Answer: The Earth and you are attracted to the centers of each other by a pair of equal gravitational forces. The size of the force attracting you toward the center of the Earth is your "weight" on Earth. The size of the force attracting the Earth toward the center of you is the Earth's "weight" on you.
