Question
The length, breadth, and thickness of a block are given by , and . The volume of the block according to the idea of significant figures should be:
None of these
The volume of the block is calculated as . According to the rules for significant figures in multiplication, the final result should retain as many significant figures as there are in the original measurement with the least significant figures. Here, the breadth has the least number of significant figures, which is . Therefore, the calculated volume must be rounded off to significant figure. . Rounding this to significant figure gives .
This question aligns with the NEET PHYSICS syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from UNITS AND MEASUREMENTS. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
