== Further examples of scientific notation ==
* An [[electron]]'s mass is about {{val|0.000000000000000000000000000000910938356|u=kg}}.<ref name="CODATA2014Full"/> In scientific notation, this is written {{val|9.10938356E-31|u=kg}}.
* The [[Earth]]'s [[mass]] is about {{val|5972400000000000000000000|u=kg}}.<ref name="Luzum_2011"/> In scientific notation, this is written {{val|5.9724E24|u=kg}}.
* The [[Earth#Size and shape|Earth's circumference]] is approximately {{val|40000000|u=m}}.<ref name="Lide_2000"/> In scientific notation, this is {{val|4E7|u=m}}. In engineering notation, this is written {{val|40E6|u=m}}. In [[International System of Units|SI writing style]], this may be written {{val|40|u=Mm}} (''{{val|40|u=megametres}}'').
* An [[inch]] is defined as ''exactly'' {{val|25.4|u=mm}}. Using scientific notation, this value can be uniformly expressed to any desired precision, from the nearest tenth of a [[millimeter]] {{val|2.54E1|u=mm}} to the nearest [[nanometer]] {{val|2.5400000E1|u=mm}}, or beyond.
* [[Hyperinflation]] means that too much money is put into circulation, perhaps by printing banknotes, chasing too few goods. It is sometimes defined as inflation of 50% or more in a single month. In such conditions, money rapidly loses its value. Some countries have had events of inflation of 1 million percent or more in a single month, which usually results in the rapid abandonment of the currency. For example, in November 2008 the monthly inflation rate of the [[Zimbabwean dollar]] reached 79.6 billion percent (470% per day); the approximate value with three significant figures would be {{val|7.96E10}} %,<ref name="Kadzere_2008"/><ref name="BBC"/> or more simply a rate of {{val|7.96E8}}.
