Question 1006170: We know that energy is released by the sun. The fusion cycle that generates this energy involves hydrogen nucleus is about 1.7 x 10^-15m, but the diameter of the actual atom of hydrogen is about 140,000 times that amount. Represent the diameter of the whole atom using exponential notation Found 2 solutions by fractalier, josmiceli:Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the atomic diameter is 140,000 times the diameter of the nucleus, we merely multiply
140000 x (1.7 x 10^(-15)) = 2.38 x 10^-10 m
