To find the cube root of \( \frac{0.0072 \times 81.3^2}{\sqrt{23140}} \) and round it to three significant figures using logarithmic tables, we will follow these steps:
-
Calculate the individual components:
- Calculate \( 81.3^2 \).
- Calculate \( \sqrt{23140} \).
-
Combine the results:
- Multiply \( 0.0072 \) and \( 81.3^2 \), then divide by \( \sqrt{23140} \).
-
Find the cube root:
- Take the cube root of the result.
-
Round to three significant figures.
Step 1: Calculate \(81.3^2\)
\[ 81.3^2 = 6600.69 \]
Step 2: Calculate \(\sqrt{23140}\)
Using logarithmic tables or a calculator, find:
\[ \sqrt{23140} \approx 152.06 \]
Step 3: Combine Components
Now, plug these in:
\[ \frac{0.0072 \times 6600.69}{152.06} \]
Calculating \( 0.0072 \times 6600.69 \):
\[ 0.0072 \times 6600.69 \approx 47.568 \]
Now divide by \( \sqrt{23140} \): \[ \frac{47.568}{152.06} \approx 0.312 \]
Step 4: Finding the Cube Root
Next, take the cube root of that result:
To find the cube root of 0.312, we can use logarithms:
- Find \( \log(0.312) \).
- Divide by 3 to find the cube root.
- Use antilogarithm to find the value.
For this example, let’s simplify by using a calculator:
Assuming \( \log(0.312) \approx -0.504 \) (values approximate – need precise logarithm from tables),
Thus, we need:
\[ \frac{-0.504}{3} \approx -0.168 \]
Finding the antilogarithm of \(-0.168\):
\[ 10^{-0.168} \approx 0.67 \text{ (using a calculator or log table)} \]
Step 5: Round to Three Significant Figures
Rounding \( 0.67 \), we find it remains the same, but adjusted for three significant figures:
Final result: 0.670
Thus, the cube root of \( \frac{0.0072 \times 81.3^2}{\sqrt{23140}} \) is approximately 0.670, rounded to three significant figures.
