Dimensional Analysis • Write down given measurement. • Setup a conversion factor. • Cancel units. • Calculate answer: • Multiply by each number on the top. • Divide by each number on the bottom.
Scientific Notation Base must be between 1 and 10: 45,000,000,000,000 = 4.5 x 1016 2.641 x 1012 = 2,641,000,000,000 0.00000000000000378 = 3.78 x 10-15
Scientific Notation Calculations Multiply = add exponents Divide = subtract exponents Add/Subtract = convert to same exponent
