This template is used to easily present values in scientific notation, including uncertainty and/or units, as prescribed by Wikipedia's Manual of Style. Template parameters [Edit template data] This template prefers inline formatting of parameters. Parameter Description Type Status Number 1 A number in decimal point notation or in e notation.

Converting a number from scientific notation to decimal notation, first remove the × 10 n on the end, then shift the decimal separator n digits to the right (positive n) or left (negative n). The number 1.2304 × 10 6 would have its decimal separator shifted 6 digits to the right and become 1,230,400 , while −4.0321 × 10 −3 would have its ...
Thus, a real number, when written out in normalized scientific notation, is as follows: ± d 0 . d 1 d 2 d 3 ⋯ × 10 n {\displaystyle \pm d_{0}.d_{1}d_{2}d_{3}\dots \times 10^{n}} where n is an integer , d 0 , d 1 , d 2 , d 3 , … , {\textstyle d_{0},d_{1},d_{2},d_{3},\ldots ,} are the digits of the number in base 10, and d 0 {\displaystyle ...
The formulas for addition and subtraction involving a small angle may be used for interpolating between trigonometric table values: Example: sin(0.755) ...
A microsecond is a unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one millionth (0.000001 or 10 −6 or 1 ⁄ 1,000,000) of a second.Its symbol is μs, sometimes simplified to us when Unicode is not available.
An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.
Eliminate ambiguous or non-significant zeros by using Scientific Notation: For example, 1300 with three significant figures becomes 1.30 × 10 3. Likewise 0.0123 can be rewritten as 1.23 × 10 −2. The part of the representation that contains the significant figures (1.30 or 1.23) is known as the significand or mantissa.
Using scientific notation, a number is decomposed into the product of a number between 1 and 10, called the significand, and 10 raised to some integer power, called the exponent. The significand consists of the significant digits of the number, and is written as a leading digit 1–9 followed by a decimal point and a sequence of digits 0–9.
