Question

2. Characteristic of log (600.03) i's
• 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here we will discuss about the common logarithm and natural logarithm.

In Logarithm we have already seen and discussed that the logarithmic value of a positive number depends not only on the number but also on the base; a given positive number will have different logarithmic values for different bases.

In practice, however, following two types of logarithms are used:

(i) Natural or Napierian logarithm

(ii) Common logarithm

The logarithm of a number to the base e is known as Napierian or Natural logarithm after the name of John Napier; here the number e is an incommensurable number and is equal to the infinite series:

1 + ¹/₁₀ + ¹/₂₀ + ¹/₃₀ + ………… ∞
