Question

always use significant figure rules. remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. divide 0.0081 meters by 300 seconds and express the answer in scientific notation.

Explanation:

Step1: Realizar la división

Dividimos \( 0.0081 \) entre \( 300 \): \( \frac{0.0081}{300} = 0.000027 \)

Step2: Expresar en notación científica

La notación científica es de la forma \( a \times 10^n \), donde \( 1 \leq |a| < 10 \). Entonces, \( 0.000027 = 2.7 \times 10^{-5} \)

Answer:

\( 2.7 \times 10^{-5} \)
