Express the number appearing in the following statements in standard form :
(ii) Diameter of the Sun is 1,400,000,000m.
Expressing the diameter of the Sun in the standard form
Diameter of the Sun =1,400,000,000m
=1.4×1000000000m
=1.4×109m
Hence, the diameter of the Sun in standard form is 1.4×109m.
(i) Diameter of the Earth is 12756000m.
If diameter of the sun is 1,400,000,000, then it can be expressed in the standard form as
