- Find the uncertainty in kinetic energy. Kinetic energy depends on mass and velocity according to this function E(m,v) = 1/2 m v2. Your measured mass and velocity have the following uncertainties Sm = 0.38 kg and Sv = 0.1 m/s. What is is the uncertainty in energy, SE , if the measured mass, m = 3.1 kg and the measured velocity, v = -7.52 m/s? Units are not needed in your answer.arrow_forwardsurface, denoted by “g”. In this imaginary experiment, you have measured g three times. The values you obtain are: g1 = 10.2 meters per second squared (m/s2) g2 = 10.4 m/s2 g3 = 10.0 m/s2 To find the Average Value of g, denoted by gav, simple add up the experimental values and divide by the number of experimental values you have: g1 + g2 + g3 10.2 + 10.4 + 10 gav = __________ = ____________ = 10.2 m/s2 . 3 3 Percent Error (PE) To find the Percent Error (PE), you compare the average experimental value to the standard or handbook value of the physical quantity you are measuring. The Standard Value of gravitational acceleration at Earth’s surface , gst, is 9.8 m/s2. Mathematically, PE is defined as: (Average - Standard)…arrow_forwardCalculate the uncertainty using the equation below and find the answer.arrow_forward

You estimate that you can measure the r and y positions with uncertainty ±0.003 m. The frame rate of the video is 30 frames/s, which means the time interval between frames is At = 0.033333 s. The uncertainty of the frame rate of a video camera is VERY small. For the sake of this problem, use 8(At) = 1 x 10 s. The mass of the marble is (2.031 0.001) x 10 2 kg.arrow_forwardPlease asaparrow_forward
