Yes. ^_^
Distance in space is measured in 'light years' or in 'scientific notation'
In the same way as the scientific notation is used elsewhere. 1 light year, for example, is 9.4607*1015 metres. 1 Planck's distance equals 1.6162*10-35 metres.
Scientific notation is used because scientist got tired of writing a lot of zeros like the distance to a star. 2.31882 *10^5 is your answer but takes more ink!
Scientific notation is used to compute very large or very small numbers.
Scientific notation is used to compute very large or very small numbers.
Scientific notation used in forensics to compute very large or very small numbers.
Scientific notation is used in jobs to compute very large or very small numbers.
Scientific notation is used when numbers are very large or very small as for example 1,000,000,000,000 is 1.0*10^12 in scientific notation
Scientific notation is used when dealing with very small or very large numbers.
Scientific notation is often used to represent very large and very small numbers. Actually, you can also express a "normal-sized" number in scientific notation. So, whenever there is a number, you may use scientific notation.
Because less digits are needed in scientific notation to represent very large numbers.
A notation is a system of written symbols used to represent numbers, amounts, or elements in something such as music or math. So scientific notation is the system used by scientists to simplify large numbers. And there isn't just scientific notation there's also stuff like electrical notation or musical notation. Hope this helps!
