The radius of a thin wire is `0.16mm`. The area of cross section taking significant figures into consideration in square millimeter is

A

0.08

B

0.08

C

0.0804

D

0.080384

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`R=0.16mm`
Hence, `A=piR^(2)=(22)/(7)xx(0.16)^(2)=0.080384)`
Since, radius has two significant figur, so answer also will have two significant figures.
