Solution 44P
Here we have to find out the significant zeros from each number.There are few rules to find out the significant figures. These are
- When zeros are present in between the nonzero digit, then zeros are considered as significant figures.
- When zeros are in the beginning of a number, then it never be significant figures.
- When zeros are at the end of a number and it contains decimal point, then it will considered as significant figures.
(a) 0.00010320 s
Thus, the significant not significant zeros are
(b) 1,322,600,324 kg
Thus, the significant not significant zeros are 1,322,600,324 kg
(c) 0.0001240 in.
Thus, the significant not significant zeros are
(d) 0.02061 m
Thus, the significant not significant zeros are
