Chapter 5, Problem 5.44P

A hand-held infrared thermometer from a well- known manufacturer boasts a measurement range of -30 to 350 °C with an accuracy limit to w-ithin ±1.5 °C at a resolution of 0.1 °C and with repeatability of ±1°C. Estimate the uncertainty in a thermometer measurement using this information. Assume 95% confidence in the specifications.
