MCQ 21 Mark
For a fixed base, if the exponent decreases by $1,$ the number becomes:
  • One-tenth of the previous number.
  • B
    Ten times of the previous number.
  • C
    Hundredth of the previous number.
  • D
    Hundred times of the previous number.
Answer
Correct option: A.
One-tenth of the previous number.
 For a fixed base, if the exponent decreases by $1,$ the number becomes one-tenth of the previous number.
e.g. For $105,$ exponent decreases by $1.$
i.e. $10^{5-1} = 10^4$
$\therefore\ \frac{10^4}{10^5}=\frac{1}{10}$
Note:
Option $(a)$ is possibal only, if we taken base as $10.$

Which of the following is the value of 'm' in $\frac{6^{\text{m}}}{6^{-3}}=6^{5}$?
  • A
    $-3$
  • B
    $-2$
  • C
    $3$
  • $2$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$2$

The question given to us is:
$\frac{6^{\text{m}}}{6^{-3}}=6^{5}$
This can be re-written as:
$6^{\text{m}-(-3)}=6^{5}\big(\frac{\text{a}^\text{m}}{\text{a}^\text{n}}=\text{a}^{\text{m}-\text{n}}\big)$
Thus, we get:
$6^{\text{m+3}}=6^{5}$
Now, comparing the exponents in the above equation, we will get:
$\text{m}+3=5$
$\therefore\text{m}=5-3=2$
Thus, the last option, option IV, $m = 2$, is the correct option.

The multiplicative inverse of $\frac{2}{-3}$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{-2}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • $\frac{-3}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\frac{-3}{2}$
The multiplicative inverse also known as reciprocal implies is something that is opposite.
The reciprocal number obtained in such a way that the value is equal to identity $1$ when multiplied by the original number.
Let us consider the number ‘a’ then the multiplicative inverse of the number is $\frac{1}{\text{a}}$.
$\text{a}\times\frac{1}{\text{a}}=1$
The given value is $\frac{-2}{3}, $ so
$\frac{-2}{3} \times\frac{-3}{2}$
$\Rightarrow 1$ The multiplicative inverse of $\frac{-2}{3}$ is $\frac{-3}{2}.$

$1\text{ micron}=\frac{1}{1000000}\text{m}$ which of the following is its standard form?
  • A
    $1.1 \times 10^{-5}$
  • B
    $1.6 \times 10^{-5}$
  • C
    $0.1 \times 10^{-6}$
  • $1.0 \times 10^{-6}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$1.0 \times 10^{-6}$
D.  $1.0 \times 10^{-6}$
Solution:
In the scientific notation, a "micro" is always represented by the number $10$ raised to the power of $-6.$ Thus, in the scientific notation, a micron will be represented in a similar manner.
Therefore, a micron will be:
$1\text{ micron}=\frac{1}{1000000}\text{m}$
$=\frac{1}{106}\text{m}\begin{Bmatrix}\text{a}^{-\text{m}}=\frac{1}{\text{a}^{\text{m}}}\end{Bmatrix}$
$1$ micron $= 10^{-6}m$ [Staudand from]
Or, $1.0 \times 10^{-6}$
