Answer:

6.3\times10^3 km

Explanation:

First, convert meters to kilometers:

6370000m*\frac{1km}{1000m} =6370km

Now, express it using scientific notation following the next steps:

  • The decimal point moves to the left as many spaces until it reaches the right of the first digit.
  • The coefficient is written, followed by the multiplication sign.
  • Base 10 is written with the exponent equal to the number of spaces that the comma moves.

Therefore:

6370km=6.3\times 10^3km

6.37km x 10³ . 6370000m/1000= 6370km then put in scientific notation.

A student is measuring the volumes of nectar produced by a flowering plant for an experiment. He measures nectar from 50 flowers
pantera1 [17]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A student is measuring the volumes of nectar produced by a flowering plant for an experiment. He measures nectar from 50 flowers using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest millilitre (mL). Which statement describes a change that can help improve the results of his experiment?

A.) His measurements will be more precise if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers. B.) His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. C.) His measurements will be more precise if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. D.) His measurements will be more accurate if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers.

Answer:

His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL.

Explanation:

In the measurements of volume using most graduated cylinders, the cylinders are calibrated to the nearest tenth owing to the uncertainty in the measurement of volume.

Hence if a cylinder has measures to the nearest milliliter(mL), then he can improve his experiment by using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL

Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, so that objects on its surface execute uniform circular motion about the axis wit
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The effect of this rotation on the person on the surface is the sky is moving, like an apparent diurnal motion.

Explanation:

<em>For an observer at a fixed position on Earth, the rotation of earth makes it appear as if the sky is revolving around the earth. In other words, if a person is standing for long enough in a field at night, it looks like the sky is moving, not the person. This motion is called "apparent diurnal motion." </em>

<em>Diurnal means having to do with a day, in a sense of a 24- hour period.</em>
