Abalance measures mass to 0.001 g. if you determine the mass of an object that weighs about 30 g, would you record the mass as 30 g, 32 g, 32.1 g, or 32.075 g? explain your choice by writ­ing one or two complete sentences that describe your thinking.

30g

Explanation:

The true mass of the recorded will be 30g ±0.001g. This figure means that the actual mass recorded lies somewhere between either 29.999g or 30.001g. Both figures could be rounded to two significant figures giving 30g.

Hence the answer written is correct to two significant figures considering the uncertainty in the measurement of the mass.

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
