What is 98.907 rounded to 1 significant figure?

Answers

Answer 1

The answer to the digits rounded to one significant figure is 100.

Significant figures are the most important figures in a number of digits.

The closer a digit is to the beginning of a number, the more important  or significant  it is.

But, the rule for rounding up a set of numbers to the first significant or to one significant figure is that:

If the next number is 5 or more, we round up.If the next number is 4 or less, we do not round up.

From the numbers 98.907, 9 is the most significant digit followed by 8.

8 is greater than 5 so we should round up by adding one to 9 making the number 100.

An oscillator completes 240 cycles in 5.2 minutes.
Calculate its period (in seconds) and frequency (in Hz).

Answers

Answer:

I. Period = 1.3 seconds

II. Frequency = 0.769 Hertz

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Number of oscillation = 240 cycles

Time = 5.2 minutes.

Conversion:

1 minute = 60 seconds

5.2 minutes = X seconds

X = 60 * 5.2

X = 312 seconds

To find the following;

I. Period

Mathematically, the number of oscillation of a pendulum is given by the formula;

[tex] Number \; of \; oscillation = \frac {Time}{Period} [/tex]

Making period the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] Period = \frac {Time}{Number \; of \; oscillation} [/tex]

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] Period = \frac {312}{240} [/tex]

Period = 1.3 seconds

II. Frequency

[tex] Frequency = \frac {1}{Period} [/tex]

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

[tex] Frequency = \frac {1}{1.3} [/tex]

Frequency = 0.769 Hertz

Answers

Answer:

d. No, porque la ecuación de trabajo lo define.

Explanation:

En Física, el trabajo realizado se puede definir como la cantidad de energía transferida cuando un objeto o cuerpo se mueve a lo largo de una distancia debido a la acción de una fuerza externa.

Matemáticamente, el trabajo realizado viene dado por la fórmula;

[tex] W = F * d [/tex]

Dónde;

W es el trabajo realizado.F representa la fuerza que actúa sobre un cuerpo. d representa la distancia recorrida por el cuerpo.

Por lo tanto, podemos deducir de la definición de trabajo y su fórmula que el trabajo se realiza cuando un objeto (cuerpo) se mueve una distancia o experimenta cualquier forma de desplazamiento mientras transfiere energía.

Answers

Answer:

334m/s

Explanation:

If you take the data you gave and insert it into the equation f=v/λ the frequency would come out to be 3.34m

334 m/s is  the Velocity of sound in air.

What is the velocity of a wave?

Wave velocity in common usage refers to speed, although, properly, velocity implies both speed and direction.

The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity.

Mathematically , v=fλ

According to the question,

Sound frequency (f)  = 100Hz

Wavelength (λ)= 3.34m

Computing the values in the formula,

v=fλ

v = 100Hz x 3.34m

v= 334m/s

Therefore,

Velocity of sound in air is 334 m/s.

is placing a compass near a wire with live electrical current biology, chemistry, or physics?

Answers

The process of PLACING a compass wherever you want it involves Biology.  Biology deals with everything that has to happen for your brain to send instructions to your muscles, your muscles to operate your arm and your hand, and your hand to move the compass to where you want it, while your eyes keep track of what's happening and send course-corrections through your brain.

Once you get the compass there and see it start doing strange things, those EFFECTS are explained by laws of nature that are covered in Physics.

Placing a compass near a wire with live electrical current involves physics. Because, the deflection in magnetic field by the current from the electrical wire is dealt with physics.

What is magnetic field ?

A magnetic field is generated by the field lines originating from a magnet or an electrical  coil. The moving current is always associated with a magnetic field.

A compass acts as a tiny magnet and it deflects to the north in  the absence of an electrical field. If an electric field is brought in contact with the compass the needle will deflect into the direction of the magnetic field from the wire.

The strength of a magnetic field, associated electric field, magnetic flux etc. are more focused in the branches of physics. The magnetic properties of a substance is a physical property.

A cyclist goes round a circular path of circumference 343 m in s. The angle made by him, with the vertical is
WITH STEPS PLZ

Answers

you need the number of seconds to calculate the distance. I'm assuming that the seconds were written in the question but you forgot to write the here, you can calculate the distance then and find the exact point where the cyclist stopped since you have the circumference. then you can find the angle (after finding the distance he cycled) by subtracting it from 360 since the circular path will have an angle of 360 degrees.

Although your question lacks some data A general answer is provided :

The angle made vertically  = 360° - x°

where x = angle at which the the cyclist stopped

and circumference of the circular path = Total Distance travelled by the cyclist

First step : determine the distance travelled by the cyclist vertically

circumference = 2*π*r

343 = 2*π * r

∴ r = 343 / ( 2π ) = 54.59

therefore distance travelled by the cyclist vertically = 54.59 * 2 = 109.18 m

Given that the time travelled is missing

assuming the angle to the distance travelled by the cyclist before it stopped vertically = 360° - x°  

This is because the Total angle of a circular path = 360°

can anyone help me to explain theory of relativity??? ​

Answers

Answer:

The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity, proposed and published in 1905 and 1915, respectively. Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity. General relativity explains the law of gravitation and its relation to other forces of nature.It applies to the cosmological and astrophysical realm, including astronomy.

The theory transformed theoretical physics and astronomy during the 20th century, superseding a 200-year-old theory of mechanics created primarily by Isaac Newton. It introduced concepts including spacetime as a unified entity of space and time, relativity of simultaneity, kinematic and gravitational time dilation, and length contraction. In the field of physics, relativity improved the science of elementary particles and their fundamental interactions, along with ushering in the nuclear age. With relativity, cosmology and astrophysics predicted extraordinary astronomical phenomena such as neutron stars, black holes, and gravitational waves

A car has a mass of 2000 kg. While it is traveling along a perfectly flat road, it goes around an unbanked turn that has a radius of 40.0 m. The coefficient of static friction between the car tires and the road is 0.500. The car travels successfully around the turn at a constant speed of 10.0 m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the car's acceleration as it goes around the turn. _______ m/s^2

Answers

Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the car, m = 2,000 kg

The radius of the car, r = 40.0 m

The coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road, μ = 0.500

The constant speed with which the car moves, v = 10.0 m/s

The normal reaction of the road on the car, N = The weight of the car;

∴ N = m × g

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

N ≈ 2,000 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 19,620 N

The frictional force, [tex]F_f[/tex] = μ × N

The centripetal force, [tex]F_c[/tex] = m·v²/r

The car moves without slipping when [tex]F_f[/tex] = [tex]F_c[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]F_f[/tex] = 0.500 × 19,620 N = 2,000 kg × [tex]v_{max}[/tex]²/40.0 m

∴ [tex]v_{max}[/tex] = √(0.500 × 19,620 N × 40.0 m/2,000 kg) ≈ 14.007 m/s

Therefore, the velocity with which the car moves, v < [tex]v_{max}[/tex]

The cars centripetal acceleration, [tex]a_c[/tex] = v²/r

∴ [tex]a_c[/tex] = (10.0 m/s)²/40.0 m = 2.5 m/s²

The cars centripetal acceleration as it goes round the turn, [tex]a_c[/tex] = 2.5 m/s².

Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond. Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden.Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf.It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws.What does the author show in the story of Thoreau going to jail?
