Objectives and Questions

Why is scientific notation useful? Using Scientific Notation

__________________ is a way of expressing a value as the product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10. Using Scientific Notation

Objectives and Questions

_______________________ SI is built upon seven metric units, known as base units. In SI, the base unit for _______, or the straight- line distance between two points, is the meter (m). The base unit for _______, or the quantity of matter in an object or sample, is the kilogram (kg). SI Units of Measurement

Seven metric base units make up the foundation of SI. SI Units of Measurement

Additional SI units, called derived units, are made from combinations of base units. __________ is the amount of space taken up by an object. ___________ is the ratio of an object’s mass to its volume: SI Units of Measurement

Specific combinations of SI base units yield derived units. SI Units of Measurement

Metric Prefixes The metric unit is not always a convenient one to use. A metric prefix indicates how many times a unit should be multiplied or divided by 10. SI Units of Measurement

A ____________________ is a ratio of equivalent measurements used to convert a quantity expressed in one unit to another unit. To convert the height of Mount Everest, 8848 meters, into kilometers, multiply by the conversion factor on the left. SI Units of Measurement

Limits of Measurement

Precision _______________ is a gauge of how exact a measurement is. ________________ are all the digits that are known in a measurement, plus the last digit that is estimated.

The precision of a calculated answer is limited by the least precise measurement used in the calculation. Objectives and Questions

Limits of Measurement A more precise time can be read from the digital clock than can be read from the analog clock. The digital clock is precise to the nearest second, while the analog clock is precise to the nearest minute.

Limits of Measurement Accuracy Another important quality in a measurement is its accuracy. ____________ is the closeness of a measurement to the actual value of what is being measured. For example, suppose a digital clock is running 15 minutes slow. Although the clock would remain precise to the nearest second, the time displayed would not be accurate.

Temperatures can be expressed in degrees Fahrenheit, degrees Celsius, or kelvins. Measuring Temperature
