Question 1
Easy
If you have a measured value of 10.0 ± 0.5 and you multiply it by 2.0 ± 0.1, what is the relative uncertainty?
💡 Hint: Remember to square both relative uncertainties and then sum their values.
Question 2
Easy
What is absolute uncertainty if you multiply 3.0 ± 0.2 by 4.0 ± 0.1?
💡 Hint: First, calculate the product, then apply the propagation formula.

Question 1
A researcher measures two lengths: 20.0 ± 0.5 cm and 5.0 ± 0.2 cm. Determine the area and its uncertainty.
💡 Hint: Don’t forget to square the errors separately before adding.
Question 2
A liquid's density is calculated based on its mass (56.0 ± 0.3 g) over volume (20.0 ± 0.1 mL). Calculate the density and its uncertainty.
💡 Hint: Apply the relative uncertainty principle here for completeness.
