Distance of Sun and Mercury = 58,000,000 km.
In Scientific notation, it would be: 5.8 × 10⁷ Km
Diameter of a human hair = 0.0025 cm
In scientific notation, it would be: 2.5 × 10⁻³ cm
Before Comparison, we need to bring cms to Kms or vice-versa, so we can easily calculate then, here, we will go from cm to Km.
2.5 × 10⁻³ × 10⁻⁵ Km = 2.5 × 10⁻⁸
Now, we can compare the values,
5.8 × 10⁷ Km > 2.5 × 10⁻⁸
[ reason. - power of smaller number is in negative, it means, it is denominator, which would be very small as compared to other ]
Hope this helps!
