Question 1
You have a function f(x, y) = x * y, where x = 1.5 ± 0.1 and y = 2 ± 0.05. Propagate the uncertainty of the function’s value.
💡 Hint: Focus on the multiplication rule for uncertainties.
Question 2
Measurements of temperature yield T = 25 ± 0.5 °C and volume = 10.0 ± 0.2 L. If the pressure P is defined by P = (nRT/V), calculate the propagated uncertainty for pressure assuming ideal gas conditions.
💡 Hint: Keep in mind how each component forms the final pressure calculation.
