Answer:


1.92*10^(-3)\operatorname{kg}

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is said to be in standard/scientific form when it is expressed as a product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10.

Given the number: 0.00192 kg

To write it in standard form, count the number of zeros before the first non-zero digit.

The number of zeros = 3

The negative of this is the required index

Therefore:


0.00192\operatorname{kg}=1.92*10^(-3)\operatorname{kg}
