Convert 17.4 nm to Mm,Gm,and Tm.1 nm = 10^-9 m,1 Mm = 10⁶ m,1 Gm = 10⁹ m,1 Tm = 10¹² m

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert from nm to Mm, Gm, and Tm, we subtract the exponent of the unit we are converting to from the exponent of the starting unit (nm, which is $10^{-9}$ meters). For Mm ($10^6$ meters), Gm ($10^9$ meters), and Tm ($10^{12}$ meters), the correct conversions are $1.74 \times 10^{-14}$ Mm, $1.74 \times 10^{-17}$ Gm, and $1.74 \times 10^{-20}$ Tm, respectively, matching choice A.
