1. Find the uncertainty in a calculated electricalpotential difference from the measurements of current andresistance. Electric potential difference depends on currentand resistance according to this function V(I,R) = IR. Yourmeasured current and resistance have the following valuesand uncertainties I = 2.5 Amps, δI=0.8Amps and R = 21.7 Ohms and δR=0.7 Ohms.What is the uncertainty in the , δV? Units are notneeded in your answer.
2. Find the uncertainty in kinetic energy. Kineticenergy depends on mass and velocity accordingto this function E(m,v) = 1/2 m v2. Yourmeasured mass and velocity have thefollowing uncertainties δm= 0.45kg and δv=1.12 m/s. What is is the uncertainty inenergy, δE , if the measured mass, m = 3.24 kg and themeasured velocity, v = 11.88 m/s? Units are not needed in youranswer.
