(2.58 x 10² m / s) (2.3 x 10³ m / s)
_______________________________
(5.68 x 10³ m)

(straight line is divider)
I get 1.04471830986 * 10^2

but multiple choice answers are:
a. 1.09 * 10^3 m / s ^3
b. 1.09 * 10^4 m / s ^2
c. 1.1 * 10^2 m / s ^2
d. 1.1 * 10^4 m / s ^ 2

Put it in your calculator and let it do all the magic

anonymous · Answer

You're right though.

anonymous · Answer

1.1 * 10 ^2 m/s^2

anonymous · Answer

Yeah same answer putting it entirely in calculator. The multiple choice answers don't line of exactly though. C is closest but should be 1.0 * 10^2 m / s^2 if rounded to the tenth.

anonymous · Answer

you gave me 1.1 thats why i said it otherwise its 1.0

anonymous · Answer

because its 1.044 so it would be 1.0 not 1.1

anonymous · Answer

Ya I agree. I'l go c) 1.1 * 10^2 and see what it gets marked as and complain if incorrect haha
