3. The equation 1.45 in our textbook says that the de Broglie wavelength as a function of temperature is given by 1 Assuming the accepted accuracy for h, R, and m are very high, what is the V3MRT maximum uncertainty in the de Broglie wavelength if AT is the uncertainty in temperature?
A bullet is fired from a gun. The bullet travels a distance L = 190 ± 0.5 m during a time interval t= 0.5 t 0.04 s. The speed of the bullet (in m/s) can be calculated using the formula, Speed = L/t. %3D Calculate the, a) Speed of the bullet (in m/s) = b) Fractional uncertainty in the speed = c) Absolute uncertainty (in m/s) in the speed =
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.
