1
The length, breadth and thickness of a block are given by l = 12 cm, b = 8 cm, t = 2.45 cm. What is the volume of the block according to the idea of significant figures?
Correct Option
Option B
Explanation
The least precise measurement (b = 8) has one significant figure, so the volume should be given to one significant figure: 2 × 10^2 cm^3.
2
Significant figures in 1.0011000 are:
Correct Option
Option A
Explanation
All digits shown are significant, including zeros between and the trailing zeros after the decimal, giving eight significant figures.
3
If the volume of a tablet is 1.76 cm³, the volume of 25 such tablets is
Correct Option
Option B
Explanation
1.76×25 = 44.0; keeping significant figures from 1.76 (three sig figs) gives 44.0 cm³.
4
The digit 0.007310 has ____ significant figures.
Correct Option
Option B
Explanation
Leading zeros are not significant; the digits 7, 3, 1 and the trailing zero after decimal are significant, giving 4 significant figures.
5
If the sides of a rectangle are 6.01 m and 12 m then the area of the rectangle is
Correct Option
Option A
Explanation
Area = 6.01 × 12 = 72.12 m^2, which rounds to 72 m^2 as given in the options.
6
The number of significant figures in 0.0160 is
Correct Option
Option A
Explanation
0.0160 has digits 1,6,0 as significant (leading zeros not significant), so three significant figures.
7
Significant figures in 1.0 × 10^-3 are:
Correct Option
Option D
Explanation
1.0 has two significant figures (the '1' and the trailing zero after the decimal), regardless of the power of ten.
8
Significant figures in 0.0010 are:
Correct Option
Option B
Explanation
Leading zeros are not significant; 0.0010 has two significant figures (the '1' and the trailing zero).
9
The length and width of a rectangular plate are measured to be 15.3 cm and 12.80 cm, respectively. The area of plate is:
Correct Option
Option A
Explanation
Multiplying gives 195.84, but using significant-figure rules limited by 15.3 (3 sig figs) the area is rounded to 195.8.
10
With due regard for significant figures, (12.5)2 =
Correct Option
Option A
Explanation
12.5 has three significant figures; squared value 156.25 rounded to three significant figures is 156.
