Question

Express 0.00000000062 kg in scientific notation. 6.2 x 1010kg 6.2 x 10-10kg 0.62 x 10-9kg

Answer 1

The scientific form of a number is:

`=6.2* 10^(-10)\ kg`

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a number which we have to express in scientific notation.

We know that a number is expressed in scientific notation as follows:

• There must be one digit before the decimal.

• If the decimal is shifted to the left then the number of shift takes the positive power of 10 and if the shift is to the right then the number of shift takes negative power of 10.

Here we have a number as:

`0.00000000062\ kg`

Now we have to shift the decimal 10 places to the right.

Hence, the number in scientific form is:

`=6.2* 10^(-10)\ kg`

Answer 2

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The scientific notation of the measurement 0.00000000062 kg would be 6.2 x 10^-10 kg. Scientific notation is used to express too large and too small values of numbers. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
