Part A: The Sun produces 3.9 ⋅ 1033 ergs of radiant energy per second. How many ergs of radiant energy does the Sun produce in 1.55 ⋅ 107 seconds? Express your answer in scientific notation and show your work. (5 points)

Part B: Which is the more reasonable measurement of the distance between the tracks on a CD:

Answer:

(3.9 x 10³³) / 1  =  X / (2.45 x 10⁵)  .

THAT's what you have to go look up.  It's much more

important to you right now than how much energy the  

the sun is putting out.

7.4 x 10⁴ mm is the same size as about 243 feet!

If the tracks on a DVD were that far apart, there would not be

If the tracks are  7.4 x 10⁻⁴ mm apart, then there are about  

34,000 tracks in a stripe that's 1-inch wide.
