    Solving Uncertainty in Lab Report Calculation

    Hello, I am working on a lab report and am unsure about how to express the uncertainty of one of my calculations. I am calculating the volume of a cylindrical disk with height = 0.0258 ± 0.0001 m radius = 0.0767 ± 0.0002m Using V=π(r^2)h and the upper/lower bound method, I find: V= 0.000476205...

    Finding Uncertainty Using Upper/Lower Bound

    Hello, I'm working on a lab report and am having a bit of trouble when it comes to figuring out uncertainty. Trial 1 Acceleration: 0.93 ± 0.14 m/s^2 Trial 2 Acceleration: 0.83 ± 0.35 m/s^2 Trial 3 Acceleration: 0.93 ± 0.14 m/s^2 I have three values listed above and and wanted to find the...

    Schools UNC Chapel Hill, UIUC, or UMD College Park?

    Hello! I was accepted into UNC Chapel Hill, UMDCP, and UIUC for physics in the fall. Can anyone lend some insight on which program would give me the best chance for acceptance into graduate school or what the research opportunities are like at each university? I currently live in NC which makes...
