Respuesta :

Conversion from one unit to another requires the use of a conversion factor.

We are required in the problem to express our result in the form; a x 10^b

To convert from μm to m, the conversion factor to use is [tex]1 * 10^-6[/tex]

So;

1 μm = [tex]1 * 10^-6[/tex] m

0.16 μm =  0.16 μm * [tex]1 * 10^-6[/tex] m/1 μm

= [tex]1.60 * 10^-7[/tex] m
