Metrics & Significant Figures

September 3, 2010

Today in class, Teacher checked in our homework (notes and worksheet pages on Metrics and Measurements). Then we completed the following worksheet pages as a class.

We learned about the sig fig rules:

• Digits other than zero are always significant
• Zeros between non-zero digits are always significant
• Any final zero number used after a decimal point is significant
• Zeros used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant.

Here is the homework: Friday, September 3,2010 =

1. Work on Formal Lab
2. Webassign- Expermental Design and Measurement and Sigfigs.
