Q100 / 200 · NEET 2022 (Phase 1) · Physics

The area of a rectangular field (in m2) of length 55.3 m and breadth 25 m after rounding off the value for correct significant digits is:

  • A
    1382
  • B
    1382.5
  • Correct answer
    C
    14×102
  • D
    138×101

Solution

Length has 3 significant digits and breadth has 2 significant digits, hence the product should have least number of significant digits which is 2.

Area of rectangular field is, A=length×breadth

=55.3 m×25 m=1382.5 m2

Thus, area of rectangular field upto correct significant figure is 14×102.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
