Two - the trailing zeros are just placeholders.
In general, the rules for significant figures are: Non-zero digits are always significant. Zeros between non-zero digits are significant. Leading zeros (zeros to the left of the first non-zero digit) are not significant. Trailing zeros in a number with a decimal point are significant; without a decimal point, they may or may not be significant.
The Washington state fossil is the Columbian mammoth (Mammuthus columbi). It was designated as the official state fossil in 1998 due to the significant number of mammoth remains found in the state.
Oklahoma became the 46th US State on 16 November 1907.
BEC stands for Bose-Einstein condensate, which is a state of matter formed at extremely low temperatures where a large number of particles occupy the same quantum state. This results in unique properties such as superfluidity and coherence. BEC has been a topic of significant research in the field of physics and quantum mechanics.

0.00340500 would be counted as 6 significant figures. The way you count is (from the left) the first non-zero digit would be the 1st significant digit. However, any zeros that appear behind that first significant digit is still counted not skipped. The value, rounded off to one significant figure, is 0.003. Do note that even if the number is exact, you have to add the extra zeros behind. For example, state 5 in 3 significant figures would mean the answer would be 5.00 The difference between 5 and 5.00 is that the two extra zeros indicate a level of precision that is 100 times greater. These zeros are not merely place holders.
The smallest measurement that can be read with a micrometer is typically 0.01 mm or 0.001 cm, depending on the type of micrometer being used. This would have two significant figures in the measurement.
The answer depends on the situation. You could round the answer so that it does not have more significant figures than any of the components which went into calculating it.
5,758. Average of 115 per state. (figures from UNESCO, from late 2007.)
There are no such figures to which states have the rudest people.
I believe that a lot of people feel that this country is becoming a police state. I know I am one of them.

There were approximately 17 significant battles in the state of Mississippi in the Civil War. Nine of these were associated with the Battle & Siege of Vicksburg, and 8 more were scattered around the state. There were also a large number of smaller actions. The last significant battle in Mississippi was near Tupelo and Harrisburg and was a significant victory for the Union.
