Convert the following measurements to metric units with power-of-ten prefixes. Do not use scientific or engineering notation. Numeric values must range from 1 to less than 1000. Metric prefixes, which are case-sensitive, must be one of the following: M, m, c, k, or µ. (You may use lower-case 'u' in place of 'p'.) Example: 2.00 × 105 m = 200 km Enter the numeric value in the first box, and enter the metric prefix in the second box. a. 3.51 x 10-5 L = b. 7.98 x 108 J = C. -0.000230 W = - W d. 11,200 K = K (note: upper-case 'K' is the abbreviation for the temperature unit 'kelvin')
Answer must be in standard form scientific notation with SI units that do not have prefixes ( except for kg.) all angles and directions must be calculated to the nearest 0.1 deg. (Tenth of a degree) and entered in standard form scientific notation.
