Answer: [tex]3.2\cdot 10^7 s[/tex]

Explanation:

In one year, we have 32,000,000 seconds.

In order to convert into scientific notation, we have to:

- count the number of digits after the first digit: 7

- Write the number as first digit + comma + following meaningful digits + 10 to the power of 7

- Therefore, we have [tex]3.2\cdot 10^7 s[/tex]
