Scientific Notation
Why do we use it?
Very Small things... BIG THINGS
![Page 3: Regents Physics Scientific Notation PowerPoint Lecture Notes.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080905/56649eca5503460f94bd875c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Scientific Notation
What can the number 10 do?
It can be used as a multiplier or a divider to make a number LARGER or smaller
Example: 1.0 x 10 = 10 x 10 = 100 x 10 = 1000
AND
Example: 1.0 / 10 = 0.10 / 10 = 0.010 / 10 = 0.0010

Scientific Notation
Scientific notation uses this principle…– but…uses a shorthand form to move the
decimal point
The “shorthand” form is called THE POWERS OF 10

The Powers of 10
1.0 x 10 x 10 = 100…right?!
1.0 is multiplied twice by ten…
– therefore 10 x 10 = 102
This is called an exponentand is written EE on your calculator!

The Powers of 10
Overall.. 1.0 x 100 = 1.0 x 102 = 1000 We can also look at it a different way..
1000 has three zeros after the digit 1..so..
it takes three moves to the right to get to the end of the number!

The Powers of 10
1 0 0 0
3 moves to the right gives a positive exponent
1.0 x 103 = 1000 also!

Moves to the right make a number larger... But what about moves to the left?
1.0
The number gets smaller!
![Page 9: Regents Physics Scientific Notation PowerPoint Lecture Notes.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080905/56649eca5503460f94bd875c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Moves to the left
0.01 = 2 moves from 1.0 to the left therefore..
1.0 x 10-2
The negatives sign means move decimal to the left!

The Powers of 10 Summary
Moves to the right are positive and
make a number larger!
Moves to the left are negative and
make a number smaller!
The number with the decimal > 9.99..etc
and cannot be smaller than 1.0
