Standard form:
5,098,000
Scientific notation.
1) only 1 digit should be before the decimal point.
5.098000
2) only non-zero number must be part of the coefficient. the rest are included in the base of 10.
5.098 x 10^6 Choice D.
Exponent is the number of times the decimal moved from its original placement to its place after the 1st digit.
The answer/sum should be 96.466
Part A
Given that

Then,

For

, then

Thus,

For

, we have

Part B
Recall that from part A,

Now, at initial position, t = 0 and

, thus we have

and when the velocity drops to half its value,

and

Thus,

Thus, the distance the particle moved from its initial position to when its velocity drops to half its initial value is given by
