Answer to Problem 15.6EAA

546×107kWK.

Explanation of Solution

0.0000546kWK can be written as 0.0000001×546kWK.

Calculation:

0.0000001=110000000=1107=1070.0000001×546kWK=107×546kWK.

Conclusion:

The correct form of 0.0000546kWK without using a decimal point is 546×107kWK.

To determine

Answer to Problem 15.6EAA

653207×104kHkg.

Explanation of Solution

65.3207kHkg can be written as 0.0001×653207kHkg.

Calculation:

0.0001=110000=1104=1040.0001×653207kHkg=653207×104kHkg.

Conclusion:

The correct form of 65.3207kHkg without using a decimal point is 653207×104kHkg.

To determine

c)

The correct form of 54.6367×106MFkg without using a decimal point.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 15.6EAA

546367×1010MFkg.

Explanation of Solution

54.6367×106MFkg can be written as 0.0001×546367×106MFkg.

Calculation:

0.0001=110000=1104=1040.0001×546367×106MFkg=546367×104×106MFkg.

We know,

xa×xb=x(a+b)So,104×106=1010546367×104×106MFkg=546367×1010MFkg.

Conclusion:

The correct form of 54.6367×106MFkg without using a decimal point is 546367×1010MFkg.
