How to find the relative error in the voltage reading
Okay thanks got it! We haven't touched on Thevenin Equivalent Circuits, we were just going through a section with series and parallel circuits and learning about the DC current, voltage and resistance measurements with digital voltmeters.- Brittany King

How to find the relative error in the voltage reading
The textbook I got this equation from doesn't have a bracket around (Rs+Rm), the equation is derived from: Er= Vm-Vx/Vx *100% -the percentage relative loading error associated with the measured voltage Vm=Vx(Rm/Rm+Rs) - from voltage divider equation Rs= Source Resistance Rm= Meter Resistance...- Brittany King

How to find the relative error in the voltage reading
Homework Statement For a circuit with 3 resistors in series (R1=1.00 kOhms, R2=2.50 kOhms, R3= 4.00 kOhms and Va=12.0 V). A voltmeter was placed across R2 and R3. Calculate the relative error in the voltage reading if the internal resistance of the voltmeter was a) 5000 ohms, b) 50 kOhms, C)...- Brittany King

Kinetic Energy from a Simple Harmonic motion and spring
Homework Statement A 0.26-kg block on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to an ideal massless spring whose spring constant is 190 N/m. The block is pulled from its equilibrium position at x = 0.00 m to a displacement x = +0.080 m and is released from rest. The block then executes...- Brittany King
