Answer 1

Answer:

(b) The planet's mass =10.241032 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the mass of Neptune  = 1024 1032 milligrams

Also, given:  1  milligram = 0.0000001 kilograms.

or,  1  milligram = $1 \times 10^{(-6)}$  kilograms.

Now, to convert 1024 1032 milligrams  in to kilograms, we get:

1024 1032 milligrams = $1024 1032 \times 10^{(-6)}$  kilograms.

Now solving  $1024 1032 \times 10^{(-6)}$  , we get:

$1024 1032 \times 10^{(-6)} = 10.241032$ kilograms.

Hence the planet's mass =10.241032 kilograms.
