Question

there are 86400 seconds in a day . how many days long is a second? express your answer unscientific notation

Answer 1

Hello Friend,

Here,

1 day = 86400 sec
So, 86400 s = 1 day
So, 1 s = (1/86400) days
So, 1 s = 0.00001157.. days

So, 1 s = 1.157 × 10^(-5) days

So, 1 s ≈ 1.16 × 10^(-5) days

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are 0.00001157 days in a one second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

There are 86400 seconds in a day.

To find:-

The number of days in a second and express the answer in unscientific notation.

Step 1 of 1

According to the question,

It is given that in a day there are 86400 seconds, i.e.,

86400 seconds = 1 day

1 second = 1/86400 days

So, 1 second = 1.157 × $10^{-5}$ days

Now,

In unscientific notation,

1 second = 1.157 × $\frac{1}{10^5}$ days

1 second = $\frac{1.157}{100000}$ days

1 second = 0.00001157 days

Therefore, there are 0.00001157 days in a one second.
