The outside temperature is one of them, its material another, and the last one is its mass.

Formula for calculating the area of a rectangle A = Length *width
For statement A;
Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.
Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.4mm
Area of the rectangle = 3.5504mm²
The rule of significant figures states that we should always convert the answer to the least number of significant figure amount the given value in question. Since 1.4mm has 2 significant figure, hence we will convert our answer to 2 significant figure.
Area of the rectangle = 3.6mm² (to 2sf)
For statement B;
Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.41 mm.
Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.41mm
Area of the rectangle = 3.57576mm²
Similarly, Since 1.41mm has 3 significant figure compare to 2.536 that has 4sf, hence we will convert our answer to 3 significant figure.
Area of the rectangle = 3.58mm² (to 3sf)
Based on the conversion, it can be seen that 3.6mm² is greater than 3.58mm², hence the area of rectangle in statement A is greater than the area of the rectangle in statement B.
Explanation:
because it doesn't depend upon other unit like kg meter and second
I'll be happy to solve the problem using the information that
you gave in the question, but I have to tell you that this wave
is not infrared light.
If it was a wave of infrared, then its speed would be close
to 300,000,000 m/s, not 6 m/s, and its wavelength would be
less than 0.001 meter, not 12 meters.
For the wave you described . . .
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
= (6 m/s) / (12 m)
= 0.5 / sec
= 0.5 Hz .
(If it were an infrared wave, then its frequency would be
greater than 300,000,000,000 Hz.)
