Q 1 :    

The area of a rectangular field (in m2) of length 55.3 m and breadth 25 m after rounding off the value for correct significant digit is:            [2022]

  • 138×101

     

  • 1382

     

  • 1382.5

     

  • 14×102

     

(4)

Given, that, length (l) = 55.3m

Breadth (b)=25m

The area of rectangular field is, A=l×b=55.3×25

=1382.5m2=1.3825×103m21.4×103=14×102m2

 



Q 2 :    

Taking into account of the significant figures, what is the value of 9.99 m – 0.0099 m?               [2020]

  • 9.9801 m

     

  • 9.98 m

     

  • 9.980 m

     

  • 9.9 m

     

(2)

9.99-0.0099=9.9801m

Least number of significant figures are 3. Hence, required answer will be 9.98 m.
