A number is written in scientific notation when it is the product of a number less than 10 but greater than or equal to 1 and a

power of 10. All numbers in scientific notation have the following form.
A✕10^n
The mass of the Sun is 1,990,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Express the mass in kg using scientific notation. (Enter your answer using one of the following formats: 1.2e-3 for 0.0012 and 1.20e+2 for 120. WebAssign allows you to enter answers using scientific notation. For example, a number in scientific notation such as 1.32 104 would need to be entered as 1.32e4. The system requires that you do not use spaces. Enter your answer to two decimal places.)Â

Answer:

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Explanation:

Given

Mass = 1,990,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\ kg

Required

Rewrite using scientific notation

The format of a number in scientific notation is

Digit = a * 10^n

Where 1 \geq\ a\geq\ 10

So the given parameter can be rewritten as

Mass = 1.99 * 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\ kg

Express as a power of 10

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Hence, the equivalent of the mass of the sun in scientific notation is:

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Transform boundaries are classified under which type of fault?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Strike-slip fault

Explanation:

Transform boundaries play the role of connecting the other plate boundary segments.

When the plates are rubbed against each other, they result in enormous amount of stresses which leads to the breaking of the part of a rock causing earthquakes. Places of occurrence of these breaks are termed as faults.

Strike slip faults results from compression which takes place horizontally, but but in this the rock displacement  releases energy and takes place in a horizontal direction which is parallel to the force of compression.

A bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes.
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

size of insect = wavelength = 16.1 mm

Explanation:

Since the bat can detect the size of small insects which are of size equal to the wavelength of sound in air

So here we can say that the wavelength of sound is the ratio of speed of sound and its frequency

here we know that

speed of sound in air is 536 m/s

frequency of sound is 33.3 kHz

so here we can say

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

\lambda = \frac{536}{33.3 \times 10^3}

\lambda = 0.0161 m

\lambda = 16.1 mm
