Answer:
[tex]1.02 \times 10^{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed of the sound = [tex]3.4 \times 10^{2}[/tex] meters per second
Time to calculate the distance traveled = [tex]3 \times 10^{10}[/tex] seconds
Since,
Distance = Speed x Time
Using the values we get:
[tex]Distance=3.4 \times 10^{2} \times 3 \times 10^{10}\\\\ = 3.4 \times 3 \times 10^{(2+10)}\\\\ = 10.2 \times 10^{12}[/tex]
Since the calculators show the final answer is scientific notation, the above answer in scientific notation would be:
Distance = [tex]1.02 \times 10^{13}[/tex]
