Scientific Notation

7.5x10 to the 6th power little boss.

Scientific notation uses short-hand for long numbers, writing the numbers in a standard form of a decimal number greater or equal to 1 and less than 10 multiplied by a power of 10, whereas ordinary notation just writes the number as one would every number. It helps to avoid errors when there could be a lot of zeros and makes the writing of numbers more compact.. As an example, 573,000,000,000,000 would be written as 5.73 x 10^14.

This also allows numbers to be rounded as necessary without a bunch of 0s. For example, 573,261,578,357,198 to three significant figures would be 573,000,000,000,000 which would be written as 5.73 x 10^14 (as above).

Shift four decimal places to the right from the starting position to get:

4.15 x 10-4

3.2 × 101 nanoseconds.

0.010 = 1.0 x 10-2

1.25 x 10^3

It is Au, for Aurum.

To express 100th of a second in scientific notation, we write it as 1 x 10^-2 seconds.

800,000 in Scientific Notation = 8 x 105

345,000 written in scientific notation is 3.45 times 10 to the 5th power. (3.45 x 10^5)

5.6445*10^2, wich reads five point six four four five times ten to the second

Note that 1 hour = 3600 seconds. Then, 6 hours = 21600.0 seconds. Shift 4 decimal places to the left, so the exponent for base 10 is 4. Therefore, we have 2.16 x 104 seconds.

5.862 x 107

This question is impossible to answer since, in the UK, the two things are exactly the same! So the steps are: sit back, do nothing!

It is: 5.0*10^-3

121,000 = 1.21 x 10^5

7.9 X 101

=======

It is: 3.37*10^11 in scientific notation

35.60 in Scientific Notation = 3.56 x 101

89,000 = 8.9 × 104

Proxima Centauri is a star and there is no scientific notation for a star. There will be scientific notations for the values of its distance, its size, its age, luminosity, magnitude and so on but the question is not about any of them!

3000000000 = 3x109

It is: 7.32*10-3

Trivially, it is 2.52*100. However, 100 = 1 and is seldom written.

It is: 6.9*105 = 690,000
