Length, breadth and thickness of a strip having a uniform cross section are measured to be 10.5 cm , 0.05 mm , and \(6.0 \mu \mathrm{~m}\), respectively. Which of the following option(s) give(s) the volume of the strip in \(\mathrm{cm}^3\) with correct significant figures:
- A \(3.2 \times 10^{-5}\)
- B \(32.0 \times 10^{-6}\)
- C \(3.0 \times 10^{-5}\)
- D \(3 \times 10^{-5}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(3 \times 10^{-5}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{L}=10.5 \mathrm{~cm} \rightarrow 3\) significant digits
\(\mathrm{b}=0.05 \mathrm{~cm} \rightarrow 1\) significant digit
\(\mathrm{t}=6.0 \mu \mathrm{~m} \rightarrow 2\) significant digits
Volume, \(\mathrm{V}=\) Lbt must have only 1 significant digit
\(\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \mathrm{V}=10.5 \times 0.05 \times 10^{-1} \times 6.0 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~cm}^3 \\
& =3 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{cc}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\mathrm{b}=0.05 \mathrm{~cm} \rightarrow 1\) significant digit
\(\mathrm{t}=6.0 \mu \mathrm{~m} \rightarrow 2\) significant digits
Volume, \(\mathrm{V}=\) Lbt must have only 1 significant digit
\(\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \mathrm{V}=10.5 \times 0.05 \times 10^{-1} \times 6.0 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~cm}^3 \\

- A particle of mass \(m\) is under the influence of the gravitational field of a body of mass \(M(\gg m)\). The particle is moving in a circular orbit of radius \(r_0\) with time period \(T_0\) around the mass \(M\). Then, the particle is subjected to an additional central force, corresponding to the potential energy \(V_{\mathrm{c}}(r)=m \alpha / r^3\), where \(\alpha\) is a positive constant of suitable dimensions and \(r\) is the distance from the center of the orbit. If the particle moves in the same circular orbit of radius \(r_0\) in the combined gravitational potential due to \(M\) and \(V_{\mathrm{c}}(r)\), but with a new time period \(T_1\), then \(\left(T_1^2-T_0^2\right) / T_1^2\) is given by
