What is the general rule in finding the volume of solid figure?
There is no general rule. There are different formulae for simple figures like a sphere, a cone and a cylinder. Other figures have yet other and more complex formulae.
What is the significant figures of the number of 23.400?
There are five significant figures in the given value. It is according to the rule of significant figures which say that zeros right to the decimal point are significant and all non zero digits are significant So , all the digits in the given value are significant figures i.e 5 significant figures.
What are slide rule's disadvantages?
The main disadvantage is that in may cases the level of precision is limited to three significant figures.
How many significant figures are in 0.041?
There are 2 because of the leading zeros rule. Zeros at the beginning of a number are never significant.
Rules in determining significant figures in four fundamental operations?
The simple rule is: no more significant figures than the least accurate of the values in the computation. For multiplication and division, the result should have as many significant figures as the measured number with the smallest number of significant figures. For addition and subtraction, the result should have as many decimal places as the measured number with the smallest number of decimal places. (Rounding off can be tricky, but that would be another thread)
