Units and Measurements

139934 In order to measure the period of a single pendulum using a stop clock, a student repeated the experiment for 10 times and noted down the time period for each experiment as 5.1, 5.0, 4.9, 4.9, 5.1, 5.0, 4.9, 5.1, 5.0, 4.9 s. The correct way of expressing the result for the period is

1 \(4.99 \mathrm{~s}\)
2 \(5.0 \mathrm{~s}\)
3 \(5.00 \mathrm{~s}\)
4 \(4.9 \mathrm{~s}\)
5 \(5.1 \mathrm{~s}\)

139935 The sides of a rectangle are \(7.01 \mathrm{~m}\) and \(12 \mathrm{~m}\). Taking the significant figures into account, the area of the rectangle is

1 \(84.1 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\)
2 \(84.00 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\)
3 \(84.12 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\)
4 \(84 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\)

139937 The length, breadth and thickness of a block are given by \(l=12 \mathrm{~cm}, b=6 \mathrm{~cm}\) and \(t=2.45 \mathrm{~cm}\). The volume of the block according to the idea of significant figures should be

1 \(1 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)
2 \(2 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)
3 \(1.763 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)
4 None of the above
Units and Measurements

139939 In a system of units, the units of mass, length and time are 1 quintal, \(1 \mathrm{~km}\) and \(1 \mathrm{~h}\) respectively. In this system \(1 \mathrm{~N}\) force will be equal to

1 1 unit
2 129.6 unit
3 125.7 unit
4 \(10^{3}\) unit
