Question

The diameter of an insect cell is 1.7 × 10–11 meter. Ariel wants to find the length of the radius of the cell. If she performs the calculations on her calculator, which shows what will be displayed?

Answer 1

8.5E-12

Explanation:

According to the Question,

Given That, The diameter of an insect cell is 1.7 × 10^-11 meters.

Ariel wants to find the length of the radius of the cell. Radius Is Half of the Diameter.

• Thus, R = D/2 ⇒ (1.7*10^-11)/2 = 0.85× 10^-11
• If she performs the calculations on her calculator is 8.5E-12.
