Concept Introduction:
In scientific work, large and very small numbers occurs frequently. But it is been observed that, to record these vast numbers or very small numbers is difficult because, the numbers may get missed while recording them. It is time consuming and the possibilities of error occurrence are also high. Hence to overcome these demerits, a method called scientific notation is used. Scientific notation is a numerical system where a decimal number is expressed as product of two number between 1 and 10 (coefficient) and 10 that is raised to power (exponential term). In this method the numbers are expressed in form of “
For multiplication of the scientific notation, the coefficients are multiplied as such and the exponents are added. For division of the scientific notation, the coefficients are divided as such and the exponents are subtracted.
(a)

Answer to Problem 2.65EP
Answer for
Explanation of Solution
Given scientific notation is
The coefficient has to be multiplied and the exponents has to be added. This can be done as shown below,
This value has to be expressed to the correct number of significant figures. One of the number that is multiplied has three significant figures while the other has four significant figures. Hence, the answer is expressed with three significant figures as
