  • Express a number in Standard form of scientific notation and vice versa.
  • Define logarithm of a number y to the base a as the power to which a must be raised to give the number (i.e., a^x = y ⇔ log y = x, a > 0, a ≠ 1 and y > 0).
  • Define a common logarithm, characteristic and mantissa of log of a number.
  • use tables to find the log of a number.
  • Give concept of antilog and use tables to find the antilog of a number.
  • Differentiate between common and natural logarithm.
  • Prove the following laws of logarithm apply laws of logarithm to convert lengthy processes of multiplication, division and exponentiation into easier processes of addition and subtraction etc.
  • Introduction: The difficult and complicated calculations become easier by using logarithms.
  • Abu Muhammad Musa Al Khwarizmi first gave the idea of logarithms. Later on, in the seventeenth century John Napier extended his work on logarithms and prepared tables for logarithms He used ā€œeā€ as the base for the preparation of logarithm tables. Professor Henry Briggs had a special interest in the work of John Napier. He prepared logarithim tables with base 10. Antilogarithm table was prepared by Jobst Burgi in 1620 A.D.
  • Scientific Notation: There are so many numbers that we use in science and technical work that are either very small or very large. For instance, the distance from the Earth to the Sun is 150,000,000 km approximately and a hydrogen atom weighs 0.000,000,000,000,000,000,000,001,7 gram. While writing these numbers in ordinary notation (standard notation) there is always chance of making an error by omitting a zero or writing more than actual number of zeros. To overcome this problem, scientists have developed a concise, precise and convenient method to write very small or very large numbers, that is called scientific notation of expressing an ordinary number.
  • A number written in the form a x 10^n, where 1 < a < 10 and n integer, is called the scientific notation.
  • The above mentioned numbers (in 3.1) can be conveniently written in scientific notation as 1.5 x 10^8 km and 1.7 x 10^-24 gm respectively.
  • Characteristic of Logarithm of a Number > 1: The first part of above table shows that if a number has one digit in the integral part, then the characteristic is zero; if its integral part has two digits, then the characteristic is one; with three digits in the integral part, the characteristic is two, and so on.
  • In other words, the characteristic of the logarithm of a number greater than 1 is always one less than the number of digits in the integral part of the number.
  • When a number b is written in the scientific notation, i.e., in the form b = a x10^n where 1 < a < 10, the power of 10 i.e., n will give t characteristic of log b.
