The distance of Mercury from the Sun rounded to four significant figures is 5.790x107km.
" x " shows the sign of multiplication.
The rules of significant figures are as follows;1) Significant figures are the first digit in the number that isn't a '0'. Doesn't matter how far behind or in front of the decimal point it is.1st Significant figure of 5098 is 5000. The first number that isn't a '0'.When you get onto the 2nd is when it gets confusing. After the first significant figure, any number which comes after it is a significant figure regardless of whether it is a Zero.Thus the second significant figure of 5098, is 5000 too.And the third? Well, it's the third number in.So the third is 5090.In addition, you add significant figures like any other number. Due to the fact that it is rounded off, however, it will not be exact.

50*pi*500 = 78539.81634centimeters or 785 meters, correct to three significant figures.
5,865,696,000 miles = 63.102 Astronomical Units
The consumption of fish is by far the most significant source of ingestion-related mercury exposure in humans, although plants and livestock also contain mercury. Exposure to mercury can occur from breathing contaminated air; from eating foods containing mercury residues from processing, such as can occur with high fructose corn syrup; from exposure to mercury vapor in mercury amalgam dental restorations; and from improper use or disposal of mercury and mercury-containing objects.Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_poisoning
hi/ho = di/do di = dohi/ho di = (51mm)(3.5mm)/(13mm) di = 14mm * rounded to 2 significant figures The image would be 14mm in front of the lens.
The rules for identifying significant figures when writing or interpreting numbers are as follows: All non-zero digits are considered significant. For example, 91 has two significant figures (9 and 1), while 123.45 has five significant figures (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5). Zeros appearing anywhere between two non-zero digits are significant. Example: 101.1203 has seven significant figures: 1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 0 and 3. Leading zeros are not significant. For example, 0.00052 has two significant figures: 5 and 2. Trailing zeros in a number containing a decimal point are significant. For example, 12.2300 has six significant figures: 1, 2, 2, 3, 0 and 0. The number 0.000122300 still has only six significant figures (the zeros before the 1 are not significant). In addition, 120.00 has five significant figures since it has three trailing zeros.
The planet Mercury has no moons as far as we know.
Mercury has no life, as far as we know.
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun
Mercury.
That varies depending on where Mercury, the Earth, and the Moon are in their respective orbits.
