Perform the following calculations and determine the absolute and percent relative uncertainty. Express each answer with the correct number of significant figures. To avoid rounding errors, do not round your answers until the very end of your calculations Absolute Uncertainty Number Percent Relative Algebraic Answer Uncertainty Number Number 9.8( ± 0.3)-2.31 | ± 0.01 -0.88 8.5 ± 0.6 Percent Relative Absolute Uncertainty Number Algebraic Answer Uncertainty 9.21±0.41 × Number Number (15.4(±0.3) × 10-] + [5.6(±0.1) × 10-31-10.101

Perform the following calculations and determine the absolute and percent relative uncertainty. Express each answer with the correct number of significant figures. To avoid rounding errors, do not round your answers until the very end of your calculations.

Answer 1

Q1. [9.8(+/-0.3) - 2.31(+/-0.01)] / 8.5(+/-0.6) = 0.88 +/- 0.07 +/- 8 %

Algebraic Answer = 0.88

Absolute uncertainty = 0.07

Percent Relative Uncertainty = 8 %

Q2. 9.2(+/-0.4) * ([5.4(+/-0.3) x 10^-3] + [5.6(+/-0.1) x 10^-3]) = 0.10 +/- 0.01 +/- 6 %

Algebraic Answer = 0.10

Absolute uncertainty = 0.01

Percent Relative Uncertainty = 6 %
