Why is scientific notation used in everyday lives?
Some people prefer it to standard notation. 0.00000000000092 what is that?
9.2 x 10-13
What is the length of a year in seconds put in scientific notation?
It depends on which definition of a year you want to use, there are at least 2 types of years:
-Solar year (calendar)
-Sidereal year (astronomical)
A solar year is 365 days, 5 hr, 48 min, 46 sec of mean solar time (see solar time), which is the basis fot the Gregorian calendar. This comes to 31,556,926 seconds which is based on the earth relative to the sun and not the stars. This is the answer shown by Google calculator.
Add about 1223 seconds to that for a sidereal year, which is closer to what the other replies show (Wikipedia shows several seconds less than the other replies at 31,558,149.54s and I'd go with that number since neither of the other answers here provides a valid source). The Sidereal year is based on the position of the earth relative to the stars other than our sun and is the measurement of a year preferred by astronomers for certain applications.

What is the mathematics term for scientific notation?
The term you may be referring to is "exponential".
For example, 98 (9 to the 8th power) is scientific notation, or "exponential".
98 = 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9 x 9, which = 43,046,721
What is bigger a gram or dekagram?
A gram is a base unit at 10 to the 0 power while deka is 10 to the first power or 100 in exponential notation. (meaning ten) So a dekagram is bigger then a gram.
How do you write a billion trillion in scientific notation?
"billion" = 109
"trillion" = 1012
"billion trillion" = 1021
How do you rewrite 0.1000000 into scientific notation?
1x10 to the 7th power = one times ten to the seventh = 1x107 = 10000000.0
All this "one times ten to the" junk starts at the "one's place" so that 1x107
is a one followed by seven zeros and then the decimal point.
1x103 = 1000 one followed by three zeros, decimal place is understood.
1x106 = 1,000,000.0
1x10-3 = 0.001 this is the same except the one is preceded by three zeros to the one's placeWeight of earth in scientific notation?
The concept of the weight of the earth makes no sense.
The weight of an object on earth is the force of the earth's gravity acting on that object's mass. The earth's gravity does not exert a force on itself.
The earth does not have a weight in the context of the sun because it is in free-fall in its orbit around the sun.
The mass of the earth is 5.97*1024 kilograms.
What are five examples of scientific notation?
Some examples of scientific notation:
2 = 2 x 10^0
300 = 3 x 10^2
4321.768 = 4.321768 x 10^3
53,000 = 5.3 x 10^4
6,720,000,000 = 6.72 x 10^9
0.2 = 2 x 10^-1
0.00000000751 = 7.51 x 10^-9
What is 4491 in standard scientific notation?
Note that 4491 is interpreted as 4491.0. Then, move 3 decimal places to the left from the starting point. Therefore, you should get 4.491 x 10³ in scientific notation.
