Activity 1.1 Problems Involving Uncertainty (Show your solutions)
1. The radius of a solid sphere is measured to be (6.5 ± 0.2) cm. Determine the volume of the

sphere with its uncertainty.

2. A resistor is observed as having a value of 5.9 Ω ± 2%. The power P dissipated in the resistor,

when connected in a simple electrical circuit, was to be calculated from the current in the

resistor, which measured as (1.40 ± 0.05) mA. What is the value of calculated P together

with its associated uncertainty?

3. An automobile speed up uniformly from rest and trips a distance of (100 ± 1) m. If the

acceleration of the automobile is (6.5 ± 0.5) m/s2, what would be its final velocity, together

with its linked uncertainty, at the end of the distance covered?
