Homan's  Test is an examination procedure of the ankle to test for dorsiflexion, which signals thromboembolism. This is done by putting patient in supine position with leg straight, and then raising the leg 10 degrees. The examiner will then dorsiflex the foot and squeeze the calf. Pain in the calf upon flexion of the ankle with the leg straight means a positive Homan's sign.

How would you write this number in scientific notation? (Use the carrot key to denote an exponent. ex: 6.02 x 10^23)
NeTakaya

Answer:

D=5.89\times 10^{12}\ km

Explanation:

The distance to the Sun is 5,890,000,000,000. We need to write this distance in km.

A number can be written as x.0\times 10^y in scientific notation where x is a real no and y is any integer.

There are 10 zeros in the given number and also there are 12 digits after. It would mean that,

D=5.89\times 10^{12}\ km

So, the distance in scientific notation is : D=5.89\times 10^{12}\ km
