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.

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?
