There are 5 rules: 1) Nonzero digits are significant. 2) Zeros between nonzero digits are significant. 3) Trailing zeros are significant if after a decimal. 4) Leading zeros holding a decimal are not significant. 5) Zeros after a nonzero digit in a decimal number are significant. Examples are provided to illustrate each rule.
1968

The assassination led to widespread speculation of a conspiracy and was deeply impactful for the nation.
The Allied Victory in Europe
The Allied victory in Europe was achieved through a multi-pronged strategy. The Allies first decided to focus on defeating Germany before Japan, believing Germany posed a greater threat. This led to Allied invasions of North Africa and operations in the Mediterranean region. Major Allied victories then followed, including the D-Day invasion of Normandy and the Soviet defeat of German forces at Stalingrad. Finally, with Allied forces pushing into Germany from both east and west, the Nazis surrendered unconditionally on May 8, 1945, marking victory in Europe for the Allies.
Dictators
The document discusses the rise of dictators before World War 2, focusing on Adolf Hitler of Germany, Benito Mussolini of Italy, and Hideki Tojo of Japan.

Propaganda
The document outlines 6 techniques of propaganda used during World War I by the Committee on Public Information (CPI) including name calling, stacking the deck, bandwagon, transfer, plain folks, and glittering generalities. It also lists 6 goals of the CPI, which were to raise money, recruit more soldiers and factory workers, turn public sentiment against Germans through fear and hatred, conserve food, and identify pro-German citizens. The CPI utilized Hollywood celebrities like Rita Hayworth to promote their propaganda messages to the American public.
The Spark
The document describes the events leading up to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in 1914 by Gavrilo Princip. Princip, a 19-year old Bosnian Serb, shot Ferdinand and his wife during a visit to Sarajevo in an attempt to free Bosnia from Austrian-Hungarian rule. Their deaths triggered World War I and had wide-ranging consequences, leading indirectly to World War II, the Cold War, and numerous other conflicts that killed over 100 million people in total. The document argues that because of these significant impacts, Gavrilo Princip should be considered one of the most important people of the 20th century.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
