There are infinitely many smaller numbers. One such is -6*103
534,000 to the first exponent
24: the number of digits is always one more than the exponent of 10 if the exponent is positive.
No, a number raised to a negative exponent is less than 1. When a number is raised to a negative exponent, it is inverted and the exponent becomes positive. This means that the value of the number decreases as the exponent becomes more negative.
In y = x^n, n is called the exponent while x^n is called a power of n. Power really refers to a power function, which is more than simply the exponent.
You cannot. There are thought to be fewer than a googol atoms in the known universe so you cannot even write a googol in number form: you can only write such large numbers in exponent form.
An exponent that is a positive integer. For example, x3 has a positive exponent, while 8-5 does not.
A number with a small exponent is smaller than a number with a large exponent. If two numbers have the same exponent then compare the mantissae. The smaller mantissa represents the smaller number.
Yes, you can, but it starts getting complicated. You can, for example have a number raised to an exponent that is itself a number raised to an exponent, or you can have a number raised to an exponent and the result raised to another exponent.

exponent of any number is more than 0

Composite numbers are those numbers greater than 1, that have more than 2 factors. Your question is too ambiguous! I don't completely agree with the words above. Composite numbers are all numbers that are not prime numbers. In other words, composite numbers are divisible by other numbers besides themselves and 1. To find the number of factors in a composite number, put the number into prime factored form. For example, the number 24 in prime factored form is 2^3 X 3^1. To find the number of factors of 24, add the number 1 to each of the exponents and multiply their sums. The exponent of 2 is 3, and the exponent of 3 is 1, so (3+1)(1+1) = 4 X 2 = 8. There are eight factors of 24. They are: 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24. Here's my question: does anyone know the name or concept behind this algorithm, including more like them? Thanks.

Yes. 1 can have any exponent, and will always be equal to 1. And -1 can have any odd exponent, and will always be equal to -1.
