How many significant figures do you use for logarithms for example ln 3.02?

The number of significant figures after the decimal place matches the number of significant figures before the computation of the logarithm. Thus ln(3.02) would compute to 1.105. Three significant figures to four significant figures (3, after the decimal place).

How many significant figures are in the measurement 210 cm?
How many significant figures are in 4000?
4000 has between 1 and 4 significant figures: if it is a rounded number, then it could have been 3999.9, for example, which would be rounded to 4000 to 1, 2, 3 or 4 significant figures.
How many significant figures are in .007001?
There are four significant figures in .007001
How many significant figures are in 0.000042500?
The significant figures in 0.000042500 are: 0.0000425. So, there are 8 significant figures.
How many significant figures are there in 5020?

What is an example for significant figures?
Significant figures are important for science, they tell how certain you are of a certain value. The rules for significant figures are as follows: If it is a decimal number, look at the first number on the left. If it is not zero, start counting the amount of numbers, and that's how many significant figures you have. For example, 7.495 has 4 significant figures. If it is zero, keep going until there is digit larger than zero, and start counting the numbers until the end. However many numbers there are, that's how many significant figures you have. For example, 0.000331 has 3 significant figures. If the number does not have a decimal, start from the right and if the number is not zero, start counting numbers and that's how many significant figures you have. For example, 93847 has 5 significant figures. If it is zero, the first significant figure will be the first non-zero digit. For example 3873000 has 4 significant figures. When you add or subtract some numbers, the amount of significant figures the answer should be expressed in depends on the number with the least amount of decimal places. For example, 4.398 + 5.2 = 9.6 You express the answer to the lowest number of decimal places a value you are adding or subtracting has. When you multiply or divide numbers, the answer is expressed to the lowest amount of significant figures that the values have. For example: 55 x 7 = 400 (when expressed with correct significant figures)
How many significant figures in 17.000?
The correct answer is 2. The three zeros between the decimal point and the 1 are place holders but they are NOT significant digits. See, for example, the Wikipedia link.

Definition of significant figures in physics?
significant figures are how many figures greater then zero starting at a point. for example; 784944 to 3 significant figures is 785000, where you stop at the third number, round it up or down and replace the rest with 0's.
