Question?
Part A: The sun produces 3.9 ⋅ 1033 ergs of radiant energy per second. How many ergs of radiant energy does the sun produce in 1.55 ⋅ 107 seconds? Part B: Which is the more reasonable measurement of the distance between the tracks on a CD: 1.6 ⋅ 10−3 mm or 1.6 ⋅ 103 mm? Justify your answer.
Part A: The sun produces 3.9 -10^33 ergs of radiant energy per second. How many ergs of radiant energy does the sun produce in 1.55-10^3 mm? Justify your answer.
Oh, okay, that's better.
What's 10^3?
\(10^3 \rightarrow 10 \times 10 \times 10\)
Part B: Which is the more reasonable measurement of the distance between the tracks on a CD: 1.6-10^-3 mm or 1.6-10^3 mm? Justify your answer.
10^3=1000
Yes, so we have: 1.55 * 1000 When we multiply this, we can just move the decimal place 3 places to the right. |dw:1422967263759:dw|
