  1. PROBLEM SOLVING AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS VERIFICATION Dimensional Analysis and Significant Digits The RULE OF ZERO! LEARN THE RULES

  2. PROBLEM SOLVING AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS VERIFICATION Conversions require one to get rid of all units they are not interested in by ensuring they appear both above and below the line at some point in order to cancel out. Dimensional Analysis Multiply what is on either size Divide what is above and below

  5. PROBLEM SOLVING AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS VERIFICATION Charles Wynder can run the “Football 40”, a 40 yard dash race, in 4.5 seconds. When asked what this would register on a car’s speedometer in miles per hour he did not know. We can calculate this and determine just how fast is Charles in miles per hour. =

  7. PROBLEM SOLVING AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS VERIFICATION My American Made car gets 23 miles per gallon of gas. When I chose to sell it to Mr. Heaton, he asked how many kilometers per liter could he expect to get when driving. What am I converting? What special conversions do I need to know? 5,280 feet in 1 mile 3.785 liters in 1 gallon (Use 3.8 liters) 2.54 cm in 1 inch 100 cm in 1 meter 1000 m in 1 km =

  8. PROBLEM SOLVING AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS VERIFICATION How to Determine Significant Figures • Rules for Rounding • If the digit to be removed • <5 the number remains the same (e.g., 1.33 rounds to 1.3) • =/> 5 the number increase by 1 (e.g., 1.35 rounds to 1.4) • In a series of calculations • Carry the extra digits to the end • Round the final answer • Rules for Significant Figures • Non-zero integers • Zeros • Leading zeros (those appearing before non-zero integers) never count • Captive zeros (those appearing between non-zero integers) always count • Trailing zeros (those at the right end of non-zero integers) count only when there is a decimal point • 100 has 1 sig fig • 100. has 3 sig figs • Exact Numbers • Counted, but not measured • Definitions (1 inch = 2.54 cm) • Rules for Significant Figures in Calculations • Multiplication and Division - Limited to the smallest number of sig figs in the numbers used in the operation (e.g., 4.56 x 1.4 = 6.384 rounded to 2 sig figs because of 1.4, so the answer is 6.4) • Addition and Subtraction – The smallest number of decimal places (e.g., 12.11 + 18.0 + 1.013 = 31.123 rounded to 3 sig figs because 18.0 has only 1 decimal place, so the answer is 31.1)

  9. PROBLEM SOLVING AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS VERIFICATION Give the number of significant figures for the following: A sample of OJ contains 0.0108 g of Vitamin C. ____________ A hair weighed in a crime lab has a mass of 0.0050060 g. ____________ The distance between two points is 5.030 x 103 ft. ____________ 100 runners began the race, but only 60 completed the course. ____________ Without performing the calculation, predict the number of sig figs there in the final answer. Sum of 5.19 1.9 0.842 Difference of 1081 – 7.25 Product of 2.3 x 3.14 Cost of 3 Boxes of candy at $2.50 per box 2 Calculations using significant figures : 5.18 x 0.0208 = 116.83 – 0.33 = (3.60 x 10-3) x (8.123) ÷ 4.3 = 1.33 x 2.8 + 8.41 =

How to Determine • Rules for Rounding • If the digit to be removed • <5 the number remains the same (e.g., 1.33 rounds to 1.3) • =/> 5 the number increase by 1 (e.g., 1.35 rounds to 1.4) • In a series of calculations • Carry the extra digits to the end • Round the final answer • Rules for Significant Figures • Non-zero integers • Zeros • Leading zeros (those appearing before non-zero integers) never count • Captive zeros (those appearing between non-zero integers) always count • Trailing zeros (those at the right end of non-zero integers) count only when there is a decimal point • 100 has 1 sig fig • 100. has 3 sig figs • Exact Numbers • Counted, but not measured • Definitions (1 inch = 2.54 cm) • Rules for Significant Figures in Calculations • Multiplication and Division - Limited to the smallest number of sig figs in the numbers used in the operation (e.g., 4.56 x 1.4 = 6.384 rounded to 2 sig figs because of 1.4, so the answer is 6.4) • Addition and Subtraction – The smallest number of decimal places (e.g., 12.11 + 18.0 + 1.013 = 31.123 rounded to 3 sig figs because 18.0 has only 1 decimal place, so the answer is 31.1)

  11. Cómodeterminar • Reglas de redondeo • Si el dígito a ser eliminado • < 5 el número sigue siendo el mismo (por ejemplo, 1,33 rondas a 1.3) • = / &gt; 5 el número de aumento por 1 (por ejemplo, 1,35 rondas a 1.4) • En una serie de cálculos • Llevar los dígitos adicionales hasta el final • Alrededor de la respuesta final • Reglas para cifras significativas • Números enteros de distinto de cero • Ceros • (Los que aparecen antes de números enteros distintos de cero) de los ceros no cuentan • Cautivo (los que aparecen entre números enteros distintos de cero) ceros siempre contar • Ceros finales (ésos a la derecha de cero enteros) cuenta sólo cuando hay un punto decimal • 100 tiene 1 sig Fig. • 100. tiene 3 higos de sig • Números exactos • Contado, pero no medido • Definiciones (1 pulgada = 2,54 cm) Reglas para cifras significativas en cálculos Multiplicación y división - limitada a la menor cantidad de higos de sig en los números utilizados en la operación (por ejemplo, 4.56 x 1.4 = 6.384 redondeado a 2 higos de sig por 1.4, entonces la respuesta es 6.4) Suma y resta, el número más pequeño de decimales (por ejemplo, 12.11 + 18.0 + 1.013 = 31.123 redondeado a 3 higos de sig porque 18.0 tiene sólo 1 lugar decimal, entonces la respuesta es 31.1)
