10.1 Introduction
Do you know?
Mass of earth is 5,970,000,000,000, 000, 000, 000, 000 kg. We have
already learnt in earlier class how to write such large numbers more
conveniently using exponents, as, 5.97 × 10
24
kg.
We read 10
24
as 10 raised to the power 24.
We know 2

10.1 Introduction
Do you know?
Mass of earth is 5,970,000,000,000, 000, 000, 000, 000 kg. We have
already learnt in earlier class how to write such large numbers more
conveniently using exponents, as, 5.97 × 10
24
kg.
We read 10

as 10 raised to the power 24.
We know 2

FAQs on NCERT Textbook: Exponents & Powers - NCERT Textbooks (Class 6 to Class 12) - CTET & State TET
| 1. What is an exponent? |  |
Ans. An exponent is a mathematical operation that represents the number of times a number is multiplied by itself. It is written as a small number or a superscript to the right of a larger number, like 2³, where 3 is the exponent and 2 is the base.
| 2. What are the rules of exponents? | |
Ans. The rules of exponents are as follows:
- When multiplying two numbers with the same base, add the exponents.
- When dividing two numbers with the same base, subtract the exponents.
- When raising a power to another power, multiply the exponents.
- When raising a product to an exponent, raise each factor to that exponent.
- When raising a quotient to an exponent, raise each factor to that exponent.
| 3. How do you simplify expressions with exponents? | |
Ans. To simplify expressions with exponents, use the rules of exponents to combine like terms and reduce the expression to its simplest form. For example, if you have the expression 3² x 3³, you can add the exponents to get 3^(2+3) = 3⁵. If you have the expression (2x²)³, you can raise each factor to the exponent to get (2³ x (x²)³) = 8x⁶.
| 4. What is scientific notation? | |
Ans. Scientific notation is a way of expressing very large or very small numbers using powers of 10. It is written as a number between 1 and 10 multiplied by 10 raised to a power, such as 6.02 x 10²³. The power of 10 indicates the number of times the decimal point is moved to the left or right to convert the number to standard form.
| 5. How do you convert a number to scientific notation? | |
Ans. To convert a number to scientific notation, move the decimal point to the left or right until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. Count the number of places you moved the decimal point, and write this as the exponent of 10. For example, the number 0.0000345 can be written in scientific notation as 3.45 x 10⁻⁵.
