How do you convert between metric units? Determine whether you are going up the ladder or down the ladder. If you go up, move the decimal to the left. If you go down, move the decimal to the right. Use the ladder to determine how many places to move the decimal. The number of steps on the ladder is equal to the number of decimal places. Write the correct units with your answer.
Practice Problems 1. 0.7834 mg = ____________ g 2. 100 cm = ______________ m 3. 345,000 kg = ____________ g 4. 2.5 mm = _______________ hm 5. 3.46 cg = ________________ mg 6. 1.00 km = _______________ cm
Scientific Notation Method of writing very small or very large numbers A positive exponent means the decimal moved to the left. A negative exponent means the decimal moved to the right
Scientific Notation 602,200,000,000,000,000,000,000 = ? Step 1: Make the Coefficient less than 10 and more than 1. Step 2: Find out how many places over the decimal has to move to give you the number in step 1.
Scientific Notation 5,300,000 = ? 4,302,000,000 = ? -24,500 = ? .000034 = ? -.0000007 = ?
Scientific Notation 5.3 x 104 = ? 7.02 x 108 = ? -3.21 x 103 = ?
Scientific Notation Addition and Subtraction: Make the exponents the same number Add/Subtract the coefficient 5.3x102 + 2.6x103 = 5.3x102 + 26.x102 = 31.3x102= 3.13x103
Scientific Notation Multiplication and Division Add or Subtract exponents Multiply or Divide coefficients Multiply Divide 5.2x102 x 4.8x104 = 5.0x104 ÷ 2.5x103= (5.2 x 4.8) x10(2 + 4) (5.0 ÷ 2.5) x10(4-3)= 24.96x106 2.0x101 2.496x107
Scientific Notation 5.6x104 + 4.3x102 = ? 4.0x106 – 8.3x105 = ?
Derive a relationship between the following 17 = 2 300 = 1 345 = 3 1000 = 1 1001 = 4 100.0 = 4
Accuracy vs. Precision Accuracy: How close to the real value Precision: How close a series of measurements are to each other accuracy of tools
Significant Figures Rounding Numbers: -Round up if the digit to the right is between 5-9 59.48 59.5 -Drop the number to the right if it’s between 0-4 3.84 3.8 Significant Figures Tell You What Number To Round To!
Significant Figures All Non-zero numbers (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) are significant Zeros – Front of number are NEVER significant 0.0071, 0.42, .000099 all have 2 sig. figs Middle of number are ALWAYS significant 7003, 40.79, 1.503 all have 4 sig. figs End are SOMETIMES significant At end AFTER decimal, ALWAYS significant 36.00, 1.010, 9.000 all have 4 sig figs At end BEFORE decimal, NEVER significant 300, 7000, 20000 all have 1 sig fig
Significant Figures 5.30 = ? 76009.0 = ? 1900 = ? .0000000891 = ?
Significant Figures Addition and Subtraction Match the number with the least number of decimals Ex: 13.21 + 4.1 = 17.3 13.21 + 4.100 = 17.31 13.21 + 4 = 17 Multiplication and Division Match value with fewest number of sig figs Ex: 2.00 x 11 =22 2.00 x 11.0 = 22.0 2 x 11 = 20
