1) Give the following numbers to four significant figures in scientific notation:
a) 0.0056542
b) 93 842 773
c) 0.000000100092
d) 0.0095435
2) Repeat part (1), but this time give the numbers to two significant figures.
3) The radial acceleration, a, of a body rotating in a circle of radius r at constant speed v is
given by
? =v2/r
If v = (3.00±0.05) m/s and r = (1.5±0.1) m,
a) calculate a,
b) the maximum values of a,
c) minimum values of a,
d) the uncertainty in a.
4) Linearize the following equations (rearranged in the form y = mx + c): a) ? = ?? , where F is the dependent variable, N is the independent variable and µ is the
constant.
b) ? = 2?√(?⁄?) where T is the dependent variable, l is the independent variable and g is the constant.
