Carry out the following operations as if they were calculations of experimental results, and express each answer in the correct units with the correct number of significant figures: (a) 5.6792 m + 0.6 m + 4.33 m (b) 3.70 g - 2.9133 g (c) 4.51 cm x 3. cm

Explanation:

1. 5.6792 m + 0.6 m + 4.33 m

Adding gives: 10.6092 m

Of the three measurements given, the one with the least number of decimal places has to be considered since we are adding the measurements. 0.6 m has only one decimal place. So the answer has to be rounded off to one decimal place.

Hence the answer = 10.6 m

2. 3.70 g - 2.9133 g

Subtracting gives: 0.7867

The answer has to be rounded off to the least number of decimal places which is 2 , (3.70)

Hence the answer = 0.79 g

3. 4.51 cm * 3.6666 cm

Multiplying gives: 16.536366

For multiplication, the answer needs to be rounded off to the least number of significant figures in the given measurements. 4.51 cm has three significant figures.

So rounding off, the answer = 16.5 cm²

one negative thing it that it can kill water animals. another negative thing is it can cause the destruction of ecosystem. one way water pollution can be reduced is to conserve energy.
