So how you do scientific notation is, however many places you move the decimal point to the left is the number that you put in the power. For example, Mercury's mass is 330,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. You move the decimal point 23 places to the left to get 3.3 x 10^23. ( ^ means power. The little number that is next to the 10)
Now according to the question, the mass of Jupiter is 5.8 x 10^3 multiplied by 3.3 x 10^23 (5,800 x 330,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
The answer to part A is,
1,941,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
Then, 3.2 x 10^2(X)=5.8 x 10^3 x 3.3 x 10^23
I don't know if you know how to do algebra, but this is very simple to solve. All you do is divide bolth sides of the equation by 3.2 x 10^2 leaving X (Earths mass) on the left.
For the right side need to divide 320 by 1,941,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. This will be the answer to part B
Hopefully this was helpful enough for you to show your work. Good luck : )
Answer:
2.87
Step-by-step explanation:
2.868
6 is in the hundredths place
To round, look to the right of the number rounding up, if number is higher than 5, round up if its lower than 4, the number will remain the same.
Limitation: They may be more expensive and time consuming than lab experiments. Limitation: There is no control over extraneous variables that might bias the results. This makes it difficult for another researcher to replicate the study in exactly the same way.
