Question

the mass of a dust particle is 0.000000000735 kilograms. What is the mass written in scientific notation?

Answer 1

0.000000000735 = 7.35 x 10^-10 kg

Answer 2

Answer:

Option D - $7.35\times 10^{-10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mass of a dust particle is 0.000000000735 kilograms.

To find : What is the mass written in scientific notation?

Solution :

Scientific notation is writing a number into smaller or larger number.

Mostly scientific number is in a number before decimal and then the multiple of 10 to the powers.

So, $0.000000000735=\frac{735}{1000000000000}$

$0.000000000735=7.35\times 10^{-10}$

The mass in scientific notation is $0.000000000735=7.35\times 10^{-10}$ kg.

Therefore, Option D is correct.
