The general formula for propagating uncertainties to a variable ?(?, … , ?) that is a function of one or more variables is given by: ?? = √( ?? ?? ??) 2 + ⋯ + ( ?? ?? ??) 2 a. Use this general formula to derive the uncertainty propagation rule for the multiplication of two variables: if: ? = ? · ? then ( ?? ? ) ? = ( ?? ? ) ? + ( ?? ? ) ?

the whole thing. I think I figured out the first part, just having trouble with second part. I am not sure that they correlate to one another. PROPAGATING UNCERTAINTY - MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION To learn how to propagate uncertainty when dividing, read the following example: EXAMPLE 2: You are trying to determine the speed of a person who is running. You measure the distance they run to be x = 80.0 m and the time it took them to be...
Using the addition and subtraction rule for propagation of uncertainties, select the expression for the uncertainty in the net force. Form: r = x ± y Rule: Δr = Δx + Δy Question 1 options: A) ΔFnet = ΔF1 - ΔF2 B) ΔFnet = ΔF1 + ΔF2 C) ΔFnet = Δx + Δy D) ΔFnet = 3 Question 2 (1 point) Saved If the results of the force measurements are F1 = (12.2 ± 0.9) N and F2 = (19.8...
Fect Question 3 0/1 pts For the same table with width 0.985 +0.002 m and length 2.013 + 0.002 m, what is the uncertainty in the area you calculated? 0.002 Since A=lw, we need to use the uncertainty propagation for multiplication (which can also be derived from the general calculus expression for combining uncertainties!). Refer to the quick guide or review the document on propagation of uncertainty and the examples therein.
Posting together because I already posted one of them on accident without an explanation. Both of these want to find the error propagation, using the rules attached. b.Em+ mgh where g is an exact constant but m, v and h are measured values with uncertainties. C.

Error Propagation What is error propagation? A question in error propagation is that when we take a product of measurements we do what with the uncertainties? Should our uncertainties get bigger or smaller as they propagate through the formulas? Take a square and measure one side. What happens to the uncertainties when you calculate Area? Can this be beneficial when our product contains measurements of different units? The rule is to find the relative uncertainty in a product of measurements...
Given uncertainties in x and y, what is the uncertainty in d2? Use the addition rule on the results of the power rule. Addition rule Form r= x+ y Rule Δr= Δx + Δy d2 = x2+ y2 Question 5 options: A) Δd2=Δx2+ Δy2 B) Δd2=2(xΔx+ yΔy) C) Δd2=2(Δx+ Δy)(x + y)
(2) Charged pith balls hang from strings and repel each other as shown in the photograph. Assume the pith balls have equal mass and equal negative electric charge. The mass of each pith ball is O grams. The length of one string is 6.0 cm + 0.2 cm. The half-opening angle is 10" +1 (a) Estimate the number of excess electrons on one pith ball, include an estimate of the uncertainty in that number. Suggestion: start by deriving a symbolic...
