Problem

The following times are given in seconds. Use metric prefixes to rewrite them so the numerical value is greater than one but less than 1000. For example,

7.9 \times 10^{-2}

s could be written as either 7.9 cs or 79 ms. (a)

9.57 \times 10^{5}

s; (b) 0.045 s; (c)

5.5 \times 10^{-7}

s; (d)

3.16 \times 10^{7}
