Physics rules, its so much fun when you have a lab where the teacher lets you do some things your not supposed to do.

I did good in physics, not great but good... 80 something percent. Could have been A material if I had "buckled down".

my significant figures are nearly always wrong, i dont understand how i can still get it wrong after referencing the web and the textbook... my last test was a 70% and this is just the beginning of the year.. we didnt even have to calculate much! it was just graphically representing displacement and velocity and i did terribly.

if i didnt get marked wrong, i would say i know sig figs... lol its been a few years of that now, its just that last year the teacher didnt care?

lets see..
for addition its limitting to the one with the least number of decimal places... for multiplication its simply to the one with the least number of sigfigs.

0.00000032 = 2 sig figs
10.0000032 = 9 sig figs
1.3200 = 5 sig figs

right??

When doing any type of calucations, atleast for us your answers were always exactly with no estimations on significant figures. They were always pretty much significant unless he said otherwize.

o.O you cant be too exact for measurements that you make

I wonder what i'm goign to get in physics. =/

I'm reaching for a B first semester, and then an A in second semester.

Hey, just wondering.

Has anybody here attended a UC? (University of California), and which one did you go to?,
