Answer :
Answer:
v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s
Explanation:
given,
speed of light in vacuum = 299,792,458 m/s
speed of light in scientific notation to three significant figures
v = 2.99792458 x 10⁸ m/s
by rounding off the speed to three significant figure.
v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s
On the fourth place the value is greater than 5 so, on the third place 1 will be added.
now, the speed with three significant figure comes out to be
v = 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s
