Question

Which of the following would describe a length that is 2.0×10^-3 of a meter? a: 2.0 kilometers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (c) $2\times 10^{-3}\ m=2\ millimeters$

Explanation:

Here, it is required to describe the given length in a particular unit. Firstly, we need to see the following conversions as :

1 meter = 0.001 kilometers

1 meter = 10⁻⁶ megameters

1 meter = 1000 millimeters

1 meter = 1000000 micrometers

From the given option, the correct one is (c) because, 1 meter = 1000 millimeters

So, $2\times 10^{-3}\ m=2\ millimeters$

Hence, the correct option is (c). Hence, this is the required solution.
