Dead on arrival (DOA), also dead in the field and brought in dead (BID), is a term used to indicate that a patient was found to be already clinically dead upon the arrival of professional medical assistance, often in the form of first responders such as emergency medical technicians, paramedics, or police.
To convert a number to scientific notation, move the decimal point right or left to make the number greater than or equal to one but less than ten, and record the number of poâ¦sitions moved as a power of 10 - the exponent. That is, if the decimal point moves to the left by n positions, then the exponent is 10n.
Scientific notation of a number just writes the significant digits followed by an appropriate power of ten. The most common form of scientific notation inserts a decimal point after the first significant digit, follows the significant digits with times, x, and then 10 to a power. If the original number is at least one, the power is the number of digits between the decimal point and the first number on the left.
