Convert 4.39 × 10-3 m to the equivalent length in nanometers.
please explain how to do it I have no idea where to start! Thank You
1E9 nm = 1 m.
4.39e-3 m *(1e9nm/m)=
To convert 4.39 × 10^-3 m to nanometers, you need to understand the relationship between meters (m) and nanometers (nm).
1 meter (m) is equal to 1,000,000,000 nanometers (nm), which means there are 1 billion nanometers in one meter.
To convert 4.39 × 10^-3 m to nm, you can use the following steps:
Step 1: Take the given value in meters (4.39 × 10^-3 m) and multiply it by the conversion factor of 1 billion nanometers per meter (1,000,000,000 nm/m).
4.39 × 10^-3 m * 1,000,000,000 nm/m = 4,390,000 nm
Step 2: Write your answer in scientific notation if required.
The final equivalent length of 4.39 × 10^-3 m in nanometers is 4.39 × 10^6 nm.
