what are significant figures ?

(a) they are all known digits in a measurement

(b) the gauge of the accuracy of a measurement

(c) the limit of a measurement

(d) they are a close approximation of the actual value of what is being measured

Large electric fields in cell membranes cause ions to move through the cell wall. the field strength in a typical membrane is 1.0 x 10 7 n/c. what is the magnitude of the force on a calcium ion with charge +e? what is its acceleration? is it possible for a particle with the same charge as as calcium to have a different acceleration if placed at this location? what would change the acceleration: mass of the particle? diameter of the particle?
