2 rods have lengths measured as (1.8+or- 0.2)m and (2.3+or- 0.1)m.Calculate their combined length with error limits |

Answer» Hey DEAR, ● Answer - Combined length = 4.1±0.3 m ◆ Explanation - # Given - a = 1.8 m ∆a = 0.2 m b = 2.3 m ∆b = 0.1 m # Solution - Mean combined length of two rods is given by - x = a + b x = 1.8 + 2.3 x = 4.1 m Mean absolute ERROR of two rods is given by - ∆x = ∆a + ∆b ∆x = 0.2 + 0.1 ∆x = 0.3 m Error limits are CALCULATED by - x - ∆x = 4.1 - 0.3 = 3.8 m x + ∆x = 4.1 + 0.3 = 4.4 m Therefore, combined LENTH of two rods wipp be 4.1±0.3 m with error limits 3.8 m to 4.4 m. Thanks for asking.. |
