The numbers we deal with in normal life are pretty easy to write. But in physics, we might be working with really big and really small numbers. The distance from the Earth to the Sun is 149,597,870,000 meters. The wavelength of green light is 0.00000054 meters. Lucky for us, there are better ways to write these numbers: words, prefixes and scientific notation.

Well your video removed all of my confusion but how will 0.6 change into scientific notation?

[@physicslab42]

@@Hani_x_. You could write 0.6 as 0.6 x 10^0 (which is 0.6 x 1) or you could write it as 6 x 10^-1
