Chapter 5, Problem 7Q

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The absolute uncertainty ( e ) for the given expression should be predicted.

  $\frac{1.324\left(\pm 0.004\right)}{1.25\left(\pm 0.07\right)\times 0.965\left(\pm 0.005\right)}=1.0976165\pm e$

Concept Introduction:

Absolute uncertainty is the margin of uncertainty that is associated with the measurement. The comparison of size of the absolute uncertainty to the size of associated measurement is given by the expression as shown below:

  $\text{Relative}\text{uncertainty}=\frac{\text{absolute}\text{uncertainty}}{\text{magnitude}\text{of}\text{measurement}}$
