halosh92:
could someone plz tell me how to calcualte the uncertainity of time in the practical???
and if i take the reading 3 times do i get the average of these readings and find the uncertainity..HOW EXACTLY?
and the ms they say take half the uncertainity??? :o ??? ???
nid404:
huh?
We take the smallest scale on the instrument
fractional uncertainty= +/- smallest unit/ value
if ur using a stopwatch, it usually has an error of +/- 0.01s
if ur using a watch, with the second hand, it has an error of +/- 1s

alright wat if i have repeated the reading thrice??
and By the way for any gradient.....on a graph....do we have to write a unit for the gradient?

no...slope has no units usually...
unless for eg...they tell u...find acc from vel/time graph....then the slope is the acc....gttn it?
use the average value
