उत्तर
a. Mass of each planet and Moon in scientific notation is given below:
Using law of exponents,
am × an = am + n
Sun = 199 × 1028
= 1.99 × 1028 × 102
= 1.99 × 1030
Mercury = 33 × 1022
= 3.3 × 1022 × 10
= 3.3 × 1023
Venus = 487 × 1022
= 4.87 × 1022 × 102
= 4.87 × 1024
Earth = 597 × 1022
= 5.97 × 1022 × 102
= 5.97 × 1024
Mars = 642 × 1027
= 6.42 × 1027 × 102
= 6.42 × 1029
Jupiter = 19 × 1026
= 1.9 × 1026 × 10
= 1.9 × 1027
Saturn = 568 × 1024
= 5.68 × 1024 × 102
= 5.68 × 1026
Uranus = 868 × 1023
= 8.68 × 1023 × 102
= 8.68 × 1025
Neptune = 102 × 1024
= 1.02 × 1024 × 102
= 1.02 × 1026
Pluto = 127 × 1020
= 1.27 × 1020 × 102
= 1.27 × 1022
Moon = 795 × 1020
= 7.95 × 1020 × 102
= 7.95 × 1022
b. Order of mass of all planets and Moon from least to greatest
Pluto < Moon < Mercury < Venus < Earth < Uranus < Neptune < Saturn < Jupiter < Mars
c. Venus has about the same mass as Earth.

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?

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?
Find three repeater machines that will do the same work as a (× 64) machine. Draw them, or describe them using exponents.
In a shrinking machine, a piece of stick is compressed to reduce its length. If 9 cm long sandwich is put into the shrinking machine below, how many cm long will it be when it emerges?

Ajay had a 1 cm piece of gum. He put it through repeater machine given below and it came out `1/(100,000)` cm long. What is the missing value?

Neha needs to stretch some sticks to 252 times their original lengths, but her (× 25) machine is broken. Find a hook-up of two repeater machines that will do the same work as a (× 252) machine. To get started, think about the hookup you could use to replace the (× 25) machine.

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.
