a) A simple spring is used to measure force. The spring is considered to be linear, so the F = kx, where F is the force in Newton, k is the spring constant in Newton per centimeter, and x is displacement in cm. If x = 20.0 ± 1.25 cm andk 800 ± 16 N/cm, %3D calculate the maximum possible error and the uncertainty of the measured force in absolute (dimensional) and relative (%) terms.
