Using the given equation you get:
E = 1.99x10^-25 / 9.0x10^-6
Divide 1.99 by 9.0: 1.99/9.0 = 0.22
For the scientific notation, when dividing subtract the two exponents:
25 -6 = 19
So you now have 0.22 x 10^-19
Now you need to change the 0.22 to be in scientific notation form:
2.2 x 10^-20
The answer is B.
Answer: First, we determine the circumference of the Mars by the equation below.
C = 2πr
Substituting the known values,
C = 2(π)(3,397 km) = 6794π km
To determine the tangential speed, we divide the circumference calculated above by the time it takes for Mars to complete one rotation and that is,
tangential speed = 6794π km / 24.6 hours = 867.64 km/h
