Question3.00×108 m/s1.5×1015 Hz\frac{3.00 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}{1.5 \times 10^{15} \mathrm{~Hz}}

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are given a division problem involving scientific notation.
2. The numerator is 3.00×108m/s 3.00 \times 10^{8} \, \text{m/s} .
3. The denominator is 1.5×1015Hz 1.5 \times 10^{15} \, \text{Hz} .
4. We need to simplify the expression.

STEP 2

1. Divide the coefficients.
2. Subtract the exponents.
3. Write the final expression in scientific notation.

STEP 3

Divide the coefficients of the numbers in scientific notation.
3.001.5=2.00 \frac{3.00}{1.5} = 2.00

STEP 4

Subtract the exponents in the powers of ten.
108÷1015=10815=107 10^{8} \div 10^{15} = 10^{8 - 15} = 10^{-7}

STEP 5

Combine the results from Step 1 and Step 2 to write the final expression in scientific notation.
2.00×107 2.00 \times 10^{-7}
The simplified expression is:
2.00×107ms\boxed{2.00 \times 10^{-7} \, \text{m} \cdot \text{s}}
