Express 0.62 kg in scientific notation. 6.2 x 1010kg 6.2 x 10-10kg 0.62 x 10-9kg

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The scientific notation of the measurement 0.00000000062 kg would be 6.2 x 10^-10 kg. Scientific notation is used to express too large and too small values of numbers. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

The scientific form of a number is:

                       

Explanation:

We are given a number which we have to express in scientific notation.

We know that a number is expressed in scientific notation as follows:

There must be one digit before the decimal.If the decimal is shifted to the left then the number of shift takes the positive power of 10 and if the shift is to the right then the number of shift takes negative power of 10.

Here we have a number as:

Now we have to shift the decimal 10 places to the right.

Hence, the  number in scientific form is:

     

The horse latitudes-high-pressure zones about 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south of the equator.-warm air traveling away from the equator cools and sinks-weather tends to be clear and drythe doldrums-low-pressure near equator-air rises and spreads out toward the poles-rising moist air produces clouds and heavy rainthe westerlies-blow from the west-move from the horse latitudes toward the poles.-bring storms across much of the united statesthe tradewinds-blow from the east-move from the horse latitudes toward the equator  -strong, steady winds
