Question 1
You need to find the work done, using the formula W = F × d, where F = 200.0 ± 1.0 N and d = 50.0 ± 0.5 m. Calculate the work done and the uncertainty.
💡 Hint: Break down each measurement's uncertainty into percentage form before multiplying.
Question 2
A car's speed is calculated from the formula v = d/t. If d = 120.0 ± 0.5 m and t = 3.0 ± 0.1 s, find the speed and uncertainty.
💡 Hint: Remember to calculate the percentage uncertainty for both measurements before finding the overall uncertainty.
