" 1.03 " .

Explanation:

When we add "measured" or "obtained values" ; the rules for "signficant digits" (also known as "significant figures" ; or "sig figs") are different from the rules we use when we multiply "measured or obtained values".

We are given 2 (two) "measured or obtained values" ; and we are asked to add these values together using the "significant digit rules.

In this case, we add up the "sum total value" of all the values—Not taking into account the number of significant figures. Then, we take that "sum value" ; and we round that value to the number of "decimal places" that corresponds to the the number of decimals places in the "measured/obtained valued" that occurs in the value using to calculate the sum —the one that also happens to have the least number of significant digits among all the values used to calculate the "sum total".

As such:

1.0090 cm

+ 0.02 cm

1.0290 cm.

→ Now, there were two (2) values used to calculate the "sum total" ;

1) 1.0090 cm ; which has 5 (five) significant digits.

2) 0.02 cm ; which as 1 (one) significant digits.

So, " 1" is less than "5" ; so: " 0.02" is the value within the calculations used to find the sum total — that has the "least" number of significant digits.

→ " 0.02 " ; happens to have 2 (two) decimal spaces.

So, we take the "sum total" :

→ " 1.0290 cm " ;

→ And round this number to: " 2 (two) decimal places:

→ 1.029... ;

→ If the number after the second decimal place is from "1 to 4" ; we round down. If the number after the second decimal place is

from "5 and 9" ; to round up. Since the third decimal place is: "9" ;

[Note: " 1.029.." ; is between "5 to 9" } ; we round up:

→ The answer is: " 1.03 " .

Answer from: Quest

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

$f\alpha \frac{dp}{dt}$

⇒ $f= k \frac{dp}{dt}$

here k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

$f=\frac{dp}{dt}$

$f= \frac{d[mv]}{dt}$

$f= m\frac{dv}{dt} +v\frac{dm}{dt}$

$f=ma+v\frac{dm}{dt}$ [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.

Amass m = 74 kg slides on a frictionless track that has a drop, followed by a loop-the-loop with radius r = 18.4 m and finally a flat straight section at the same height as the center of the loop (18.4 m off the ground). since the mass would not make it around the loop if released from the height of the top of the loop (do you know why? ) it must be released above the top of the loop-the-loop height. (assume the mass never leaves the smooth track at any point on its path.) 1. what is the minimum speed the block must have at the top of the loop to make it around the loop-the-loop without leaving the track? 2. what height above the ground must the mass begin to make it around the loop-the-loop? 3. if the mass has just enough speed to make it around the loop without leaving the track, what will its speed be at the bottom of the loop? 4. if the mass has just enough speed to make it around the loop without leaving the track, what is its speed at the final flat level (18.4 m off the ground)? 5. now a spring with spring constant k = 15600 n/m is used on the final flat surface to stop the mass. how far does the spring compress?

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (for example, would the velocity of a neutral particle be selected by passage through this device? ) the explanation of this is that the mass and the charge control the resolution of the device--particles with the wrong velocity will be accelerated away from the straight line and will not pass through the exit slit. if the acceleration depends strongly on the velocity, then particles with just slightly wrong velocities will feel a substantial transverse acceleration and will not exit the selector. because the acc
