Question: Represent each of the following as a number between 0.1 and 1000 using an appropriate prefix: (a) 45 320 KN, (b) 568(105) mm, and (c) 0.00563 mg. Answer: a) Since from the table 1-3 “Prefixes”, the prefix ‘k’ indicates kilo and ‘M’ indicates mega. Write the Conversion factor for kilo and Mega Newton. IkN =10°N IMN =10°N Represent the numbers with appropriate prefixes. IkN = 45,320x10° N =(45.320x10° N IMN ( ) 6 10° N 3 45320KN = (4522010) 10 “| =45,320 MN 2 Therefore, appropriate represent of the number 45320KN with prefixes is 45.320MN . > b) Since 1M =1000mm nq 1km =1000M are conversion factors obtained from the table 1-3 “Prefixes”. Represent the numbers with appropriate prefixes.
