Expert Solution
Step 1

Scientific notation is a way of writing numbers or values of variables so that it became easy to learn and understand. Scientific notation is a universal way of writing numbers in a proper manner. To convert any number to scientific notation we just have to write that number into the power of 10 and keeping a single number between 1 to 9 before the decimal.

On further converting as,

1. Converting 0.005 to scientific notation as,

0.005=5×10-3

Thus, the scientific notation for 0.005 is 5 x 10-3.

2. Converting 5050 to scientific notation as,

5050=5.050×103

Thus, the scientific notation for 5050 is 5.050 x 103.
