The number of significant figures in 0.00450 is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The number of significant figures in 0.00450 is
A. 4
B. 2
C. 5
D. 3
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Leading zeros not significant. '450' has three digits, but the trailing zero after decimal is significant (4,5,0). So 3 significant figures. 0.00450 is 3 SF.

Question #1
Two 100 W, 200 V bulbs are connected in series across 200 V supply. Total power consumed is
A. 50 W
B. 25 W
C. 200 W
D. 100 W

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Each bulb resistance R = V²/P = 40000/100 = 400 Ω. In series, total R = 800 Ω. Total power P_total = V²/(total R) = 200²/800 = 40000/800 = 50 W. So each bulb gets 25 W. Series reduces power.
