To convert 560,000 into scientific notation, we need to express it in the form \( a \times 10^n \), where \( 1 \leq a < 10 \) and \( n \) is an integer.
Starting with 560,000, we can write:
\[
560,000 = 5.6 \times 10^5
\]
Here, we moved the decimal point 5 places to the left, which gives us the exponent of \( 10 \) as 5.
Therefore, when 560,000 is written in scientific notation, the power of 10 is \( \boxed{5} \).
