3 Problem Solving: Scientific Notation
Write the correct answer.
1. In June 2001, the Intel Corporation
announced that they could produce a
silicon transistor that could switch on
and off 1.5 trillion times a second.
Express the speed of the transistor in
scientific notation.
2. With this transistor, computers will be
able to do 1 109 calculations in the
time it takes to blink your eye.
Express the number of calculations
using standard notation.

3. The elements in this fast transistor are
20 nanometers long. A nanometer is
one-billionth of a meter. Express the
length of an element in the transistor
in meters using scientific notation.
4. The length of the elements in the
transistor can also be compared to
the width of a human hair. The length
of an element is 2 10 3 times
smaller than the width of a human
hair. Express 2 10 3 in standard
notation.
