Part A: The Sun produces 3.9 ⋅ 1033 ergs of radiant energy per second. How many ergs of radiant energy does the Sun produce in 1.55 ⋅ 107 seconds? Express your answer in scientific notation and show your work. (5 points)

Part B: Which is the more reasonable measurement of the distance between the tracks on a CD:
1.6 ⋅ 10−3 mm or 1.6 ⋅ 103 mm? Justify your answer. (5 points)

A. The answer is 165.85.                                                                                        B. The best answer is 1.435 ·103 because while they both are really small for a rail road track that one is bigger. the final answer for that is 147.805mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

(3.9 x 10³³) / 1  =  X / (2.45 x 10⁵)  .

Solve that proportion for ' X ' in the usual way.

If you can't remember how to solve a proportion, then  

THAT's what you have to go look up.  It's much more

important to you right now than how much energy the  

sun is putting out.

7.4 x 10⁴ mm is the same size as about 243 feet !

If the tracks on a DVD were that far apart, there would not be  

room for very many tracks on a DVD.  That's not reasonable.

If the tracks are  7.4 x 10⁻⁴ mm apart, then there are about  

34,000 tracks in a stripe that's 1-inch wide.  I have no idea

how they do this, but it's certainly more reasonable than the  

other choice.                                                                                                                      Hope this helps! Can you please give me Brainleist?
