The product of the lengths of the two radii is obtained by multiplying the two values:
(3.125 x 10^-11 meters) x (5 x 10^-6 meters).
To multiply these numbers, we can simply add their exponents:
(3.125 x 5) x (10^-11 x 10^-6) = 15.625 x 10^-17.
Since 10^-17 is a very small number, we can represent it in scientific notation by multiplying both parts by 10, resulting in:
(15.625 x 10) x (10^-18) = 156.25 x 10^-18.
Therefore, the product of the lengths of the two radii is 156.25 x 10^-18 meters.
