Conclusion
1. Why is it important to use a power-of-ten notation (i.e., scientific or engineering) when
expressing very large or very small numbers?
With a power-of-ten notation, any number can be expressed as a decimal number
multiplied by a power-of-ten.
3. The SI prefix for 10-15 is femto and is abbreviated f. We do not use this prefix in
electronics. Why?
They do not use it because f can be used for frequceny also.
