We have to express 0.000065 cm in scientific notation.

Scientific notation is a mathematical expression used to represent a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplied by ten, so we can write large numbers using less digits.

Consider 0.000065 cm =
6.5 * 10^-5 cm

Therefore,
6.5 * 10^-5 cm is the scientific notation for the given number 0.000065 cm.
