Question

Use the prefix multipliers to express each measurement without any exponents.

a) 1.2*10⁻⁹ᵐ
b) 22*10⁻¹⁵ˢ
c) 1.5*10⁹ᵍ
d) 3.5*10⁶ᴸ

Answer 1

The prefix multipliers in scientific notation are used to express measurements without exponents. You multiply the number by the corresponding prefix multiplier.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prefix multipliers in scientific notation are used to express measurements without exponents. To express a number without using exponents, you multiply the number by the corresponding prefix multiplier. For example:

a) 1.2 x 10-9 m = 1.2 nanometers (nm)

b) 22 x 10-15 s = 22 femtoseconds (fs)

c) 1.5 x 109 g = 1.5 gigagrams (Gg)

d) 3.5 x 106 L = 3.5 megaliters (ML)
