Question

Convert 4 centimeters to meters using dimensional analysis and scientific notation. Please go step by step as I am having difficulty with this subject. ​

Answer 1

Question:-

Convert 4cm to m

Solution:-

Lets do

First note down the below formula

`\boxed{\sf 1m=10^(2)cm}`

Then

`\boxed{\sf 1cm=10^(-2)cm}`

Now we are given 4cm

So convert

`\\ \sf\longmapsto 4* 10^(-2)m`

If we simplify to decimal

`\\ \sf\longmapsto 4cm=0.04m`

Hence done .
