Determine the percentage uncertainty in the volume of a cube that is 1.08 + 0.01 m on a side. Given: Absolute Uncertainty = 1.08 + 0.01m Solution: ‘Percentage uncertainty : A absolute uncertainty % uncertainty = "= x 100 % ‘given measurement _ 001m = 06) = (9.25926 x 10-8) x 100 % x 100% % uncertainty = 0.925926 % Volume of the cube v= a? = (108m) # volume of cube = 1.259712 m3 ‘Absolute uncertainty dv _ 3da va a Cramer 7 cna dv = 0.034992 m?

A student counted 91.5, 90.75, 92, 91.25, 92.75, and 91 paces in six trials of walking along a course of 200-ft known length on level ground. Then 85.25, 86, 86.50, and 84 paces were counted in walking four repetitions of an unknown distance AB.
