Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 21.4 \ g/cm^3}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the density of an object.

The density of a substance is its mass per unit volume. It is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.

\rho= \frac{m}{v}

The mass of the object is 1.08 kilograms. The object displaced 50.50 cubic centimeters of water, so this value is its volume.

We are asked to give the density in grams per cubic centimeter, so we must convert the mass. There are 1000 grams in 1 kilogram. Set up a conversion factor.

\frac {1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}

Multiply by the given mass: 1.08 kg

1.08\ kg *\frac{1000 \ g }{ 1\ kg}

The units of kilograms cancel.

1.08*\frac{1000 \ g }{1}

1.08*{1000 \ g } = 1080 \ g

Now we know the mass in grams and the volume:

  • m= 1080 g
  • v= 50.50 cm³

Substitute the values into the density formula.

\rho= \frac{1080 \ g }{50.50 \ cm^3}

Divide.

\rho= 21.3861386 \ g/cm^3

The original measurements of mass and density have 3 and 4 significant figures. Our answer must have the least number of significant figures, or 3.

For the number we found, that is the tenths place. The 8 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 3 in the tenths place up to a 4.

\rho \approx 21.4 \ g/cm^3

The density of the object is approximately <u>21.4 grams per cubic centimeter.</u>

How many significant figures are needed in the answer when 1.31m is multiplied by 6.5 m​
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

two

Explanation:

The number of significant figures needed in the answer is 2.

This is because when finding the products of two numbers, the result is as accurate as the least number of significant figures of the numbers being multiplied.

Here the numbers being multiplied are;

 1.31m

 6.5m

        1.31m has 3 significant figures

          6.5m has 2 significant figures.

So, the product will have 2 significant figures

Is photosphere the layer that emits sunlight?​
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

In our Sun, as in other stars, roughly 99.9% or so of all light emitted is emitted in a thin layer known as the photosphere, or light sphere. This is explained as follows. Interior to the photosphere the gas is ever denser and becomes far too opaque for any photon to emerge directly from that layer.
