Today we spent time on basic science math stuff. We went over the rules for significant figures. We also went over some basic english to metric measurement conversions. Briefly covered exponential notation and lastly, did some metric conversions.
Homework for this week is to do the enclosed worksheet .pdf. The answers are included with the .pdf, however, DO NOT look at the answers until you've finished the worksheet!!!! Use them to check your work. If you get one wrong figure out why and how to do it right. I promise you, your quiz scores will be much better if you use this homework as a self quiz type of thing.
Also, if you feel shaky on significant figures or exponential notation, this website has an ugly but effective tool for quizzing yourself. You might want to check it out.
Be prepared for a quiz! Be sure to feel comfy with those metric to english conversions we went over in class.
