Which of these time measurements is the smallest? A) 0.02 seconds. B) 0.02 teraseconds. C) 2,500 milliseconds. D) 25,000 nanoseconds
In order to answer the question, we convert the measurements given to a common base unit. For this case, we use seconds.
A) 0.02 seconds
B) 0.02 teraseconds x (10^12 s / 1 terasecond) = 2x10^10 seconds
C) 2,500 milliseconds x (1 s / 1000 ms) = 2.5 seconds
D) 25,000 nanoseconds x (1 x 10^-9 s / 1 nanosecond) = 2.5 x 10^-5 seconds
Therefore, among the choices listed above the correct answer is D.
Answer:
D. 25,000 nanoseconds
