Scientific Notation ± real ± integer
Uncertainty in Measurement Uncertainty in Measurement • All scientific measures are subject to error. • These errors are reflected in the number of figures reported for the measurement. • These errors are also reflected in the observation that two successive measures of the same quantity are different. Precision and Accuracy • Measurements that are close to the “correct” value are accurate. • Measurements that are close to each other are precise.
Uncertainty in Measurement Precision and Accuracy
Rules of Significant Figures • Counting zeros • Rounding • Product/Quotient can have no more sig. Figs. Than numbers with the least sig. Figs. • Sum/Difference can have no more decimals than numbers with least decimals. • Keep at least one extra digit for intermediate calculations • Exact Numbers
Dimensional Analysis Box #’s andClass/Random-ID#’s Dimensional Analysis • Method of calculation utilizing a knowledge of units • Conversion factors => simple ratios relating two units • Desired unit = given unit (conversion factor) Test Etiquette

Units of Measurement Density • Used to characterize substances. • Defined as mass divided by volume: • Units: g/cm3 or g/mL . • Originally based on mass (the density was defined as the mass of 1.00 g of pure water). Test Etiquette
Density Example • The sun is estimated to have a mass of 2x1036 kg . Assuming it to be a sphere of average radius 6.96x105 km , calculate the average density of the sun in units of g cm-3 . Mathcad Solution
