To express 44 millimeters (which is 0.044 meters) in scientific notation:

\[ 0.044 \, \text{m} = 4.4 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{m} \]

Here's how it's done:
- The number \( 0.044 \) can be rewritten as \( 4.4 \times 10^{-2} \) because you move the decimal point two places to the right, which is equivalent to multiplying by \( 10^{-2} \).
