1.25x 10^-8 meters wide by 2.5 x 10^-6 meters long. use scientific notation to write the dimensions in milimeters
The given width is 1.25 x 10^-8 meters, and to write it in millimeters, we need to convert meters to millimeters.
1 meter is equal to 1000 millimeters. Therefore, to convert the width from meters to millimeters, we multiply by 1000:
1.25 x 10^-8 meters x 1000 millimeters/meter = 1.25 x 10^-5 millimeters
The width in millimeters is 1.25 x 10^-5 mm.
Similarly, the given length is 2.5 x 10^-6 meters. Converting meters to millimeters, we have:
2.5 x 10^-6 meters x 1000 millimeters/meter = 2.5 x 10^-3 millimeters
The length in millimeters is 2.5 x 10^-3 mm.
