The prefix 'femto' in SI units represents a factor of:
A. 10⁻⁹
B. 10⁻¹⁵
C. 10⁻¹⁸
D. 10⁻¹²

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
The SI prefix 'femto' denotes a factor of 10⁻¹⁵. This is standardized by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures. Common prefixes: pico (10⁻¹²), femto (10⁻¹⁵), atto (10⁻¹⁸), nano (10⁻⁹). Femtometer (10⁻¹⁵ m) is used in nuclear physics to measure atomic nuclei sizes. Exam tip: Remember the sequence: pico, femto, atto for decreasing scales. This question tests fundamental knowledge of SI prefixes essential for unit conversions in competitive examinations.
