In which of the following pairs do both numbers contain the same number of significant figures? check all that apply. check all that apply. 0.00012 s and 12000 s 11.0 m and 11.00 m 0.0250 m and 0.205 m 250.0 l and 2.5×10−2l

The correct answer is :A and C

Explanation:

According to the rule

1- Zeroes at the beginning of a number are never significant.

2- Zeroes at the end of a number are significant if there is a decimal point.

(a) 0.00012 s and 12000 s

0.00012 has 2 significant figure and 12000 has 2 significant figures

(b) 11.0 m and 11.00 m

11.0 has 3 significant figures and 11.00 has 4 significant figure.

(c)  0.0250 m and 0.205

0.0250 has 3 significant figure and 0.250 has 3 significant figures

(d) 250.0 L and 2.5×10−2L

250.0 has 4 significant figures and 2.5x10−2 has 2 sig figures.

So (a) and (c) pairs have same number of sig figures.

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
