उत्तर
a. Scientific notation of distance from Sun to
Earth = 149600000
= 1496 × 105
= 1.496 × 108
Jupiter = 149600000
= 1496 × 105
= 1.496 × 108
Mars = 227900000
= 2279 × 105
= 2.279 × 108
Mercury = 57900000
= 579 × 105
= 5.79 × 107
Neptune = 4497000000
= 4497 × 106
= 4.497 × 109
Pluto = 5900000000
= 59 × 108
= 5.9 × 109
Saturn = 1427000000
= 1427 × 106
= 1.427 × 109
Uranus = 2870000000
= 287 × 107
= 2.87 × 109
Venus = 108200000
= 1082 × 105
= 1.082 × 108
b. Order of planet from closest to the Sun to farthest from the Sun is given by
Mercury < Venus < Earth < Mars < Jupiter < Saturn < Uranus < Neptune < Pluto

The diameter of the Sun is 1.4 × 109 m and the diameter of the Earth is 1.2756 × 107 m.
Suppose you have a stretching machine which could stretch almost anything. For example, if you put a 5 metre stick into a (× 4) stretching machine (as shown below), you get a 20 metre stick. Now if you put 10 cm carrot into a (× 4) machine, how long will it be when it comes out?
Two machines can be hooked together. When something is sent through this hook up, the output from the first machine becomes the input for the second. Which two machines hooked together do the same work a (× 102) machine does? Is there more than one arrangement of two machines that will work?
Two machines can be hooked together. When something is sent through this hook up, the output from the first machine becomes the input for the second. Which stretching machine does the same work as two (× 2) machines hooked together?

Similarly, repeater machine is a hypothetical machine which automatically enlarges items several times. For example, sending a piece of wire through a (× 24) machine is the same as putting it through a (× 2) machine four times. So, if you send a 3 cm piece of wire through a (× 24) machine, its length becomes 3 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 48 cm. It can also be written that a base (2) machine is being applied 4 times.
What will be the new length of a 4 cm strip inserted in the machine?
What will the following machine do to a 2 cm long piece of chalk?
Find three machines that can be replaced with hook-ups of (× 5) machines.
The left column of the chart lists the lengths of input pieces of ribbon. Stretching machines are listed across the top. The other entries are the outputs for sending the input ribbon from that row through the machine from that column. Copy and complete the chart.

The distance between the Sun and the Earth is 1.496 × 108 km and distance between the Earth and the Moon is 3.84 × 108 m. During solar eclipse the Moon comes in between the Earth and the Sun. What is distance between the Moon and the Sun at that particular time?
A particular star is at a distance of about 8.1 × 1013 km from the Earth. Assuring that light travels at 3 × 108 m per second, find how long does light takes from that star to reach the Earth.
