139924 The diameter and height of a cylinder are measured by a meter scale to be \(12.6 \pm 0.1 \mathrm{~cm}\) and \(34.2 \pm 0.1 \mathrm{~cm}\), respectively. What will be the value of its volume in appropriate significant figures?

1 \(4300 \pm 80 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)
2 \(4260 \pm 80 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)
3 \(4264.4 \pm 81.0 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)

139926 Identify the incorrect statement among the following.

1 A true length of \(5.678 \mathrm{~km}\) has been measured in two experiments as \(5.5 \mathrm{~km}\) and \(5.51 \mathrm{~km}\), respectively. The second measurement has more precision.
2 Length of \(1 \mathrm{~m}\) and \(0.5 \mathrm{~m}\) have been both measured with the same absolute error of 0.01 \(\mathrm{m}\). Both the measurement are equally accurate.
3 The numbers of significant digits in 1.6 and 0.60 are both two.
4 The number 2.445 can be rounded to two decimal place as 2.45 .
Units and Measurements

139928 Assertion (A) : The number 0.00764 has three significant figures.
Reason (R) : If the number is less than 1 , the zeros on the right of the decimal point but to the left of the first non-zero digit are not significant.

1 Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of \((\mathrm{A})\).
2 Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of \((\mathrm{A})\).
3 (A) is true but (R) is false.
4 (A) is false but (R) is true.
