Respuesta :

A micrometer has a power of [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]

A millimeter has a power of x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]

A nanometer  has a power of [tex]10^{-12}[/tex]

A picometer  has a power of [tex]10^{-12}[/tex]

We are to write the numbers in standard form.

Standard form is a way of writing simplifying numbers and expressing numbers to a power of 10.

For example, to express 1000  in standard form, count the number of digits after the first number. There are 3 zeros. 3 would be the power of the number. So, 1000 in standard form is 1 x 10³

To express a decimal in standard form, count the numbers of zeros and the first non-zero digit  The negative of the number would be the power.

For example, 0.001 is standard form is 1 x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]

A micrometer has 6 digits after the decimal point , it power would be x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]

A millimeter has 3 digits after the decimal point, its power would be x [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]

A nanometer has 9 digits after the decimal point, its power would be x [tex]10^{-12}[/tex]

A picometer has 12 digits after the decimal point, its power would be x [tex]10^{-12}[/tex]
