How To use logarithm table? Any video's or tutorials?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It can be used for multiplication and division.Check this out : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTS4MJ8EZGo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How to use: Just open it and see which log value you want to find... Ha ha ha..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Man...i want to use logarithm table ....if some one asks me wat is log20 ? wat will i do..if i have log book

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no @waterineyes it is not that easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is simple: \[\log(20) \implies \log(2) + \log(10) = 1.3010\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it is base 10..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hw do u have the value of log2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I remember.. You have to remember some of basic values..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is wat i told @waterineyes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hw to use this table

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This might also help : http://www.oldcomputers.arcula.co.uk/bhist3.htm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@kartiksriramk thxx for the link....but i want to knw hw we can use that table

hartnn (hartnn):

is it only I or the log table looks really faulty! log 10 =0 instead of log 1=0 log 20 =0.3 instead of log 2=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is another way to look this..thats wat i told

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my professor was showing her "skills" reading the tables of logs and sine's etc. she would go on and on about how the Brooklyn Bridge was built without the use of calculator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log(20) = 0.3010 ??\] Something wrong there. It is the value for \(log(2)\)..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u r correct log20 = 0.3010

hartnn (hartnn):

yesss,in the column of x,there should be 1.0,1.1,1.2......and not 10,11,12...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log(20) = 1.3010 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

click on the photo of that link.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

I think the image is didn't capture the decimal point notice what looks like 10 has a value of 0... so I think its 1.0

hartnn (hartnn):

i will give an example,tell me if it helps: log 1.376=0.1386 now u first find 1.3 in that table,u will be looking in that row only find 7 in middle values ....to get 0.1367 now u find 6 in extreme right,to get 'add 19' this gives 0.1367+19=0.1386 as final answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nop...it confuses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u hav eany videos on this

hartnn (hartnn):

which part u did not understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

eg: Log 45

hartnn (hartnn):

for 45 u split it as 4.5*10 log 45= log 10+log 4.5=1+log 4.5 from table,log 4.5=0.6532 so log 45=1.6532

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hw u got log4.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@hartnn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shubhamsrg

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

there is a log table for that.. you dont have to worry,,just lean log2,log3,log 5 if question uses log,,it must be mentioned the value of log in the ques itself..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats wat i asked how to get log value from that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shubhamsrg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

google over..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is the table plzzz teach me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Eg: log50

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

buddy,,google can tell you better than me,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i cant ask doubts to them

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

learn from there,,and if any doubts,,ask here.!! :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can u give the link of any such sites

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i want a video

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

http://www.oldcomputers.arcula.co.uk/bhist3.htm maybe

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

that was the first link i found on google!! :P

hartnn (hartnn):

for log 4.5,i'll see x=4.5,column 0 which is 0.6532 if it were log 4.53 ,i would have seen x=4.5 column 3 which is 0.6561
