    Help understanding error progression.

    Homework Statement We have made a standard tank in our lab. I need to calculate the uncertainty in the concentrations of the compounds we added to the tank.Homework Equations My professor indicated that I would need to use error progression to calculate an accurate uncertainty for the tank. I...

    Help calculating uncertainty of slope & intercept of cal. curves. uncertainty ?s

    I do remember this now. Thanks, I found this earlier by playing around with the data analysis. But was looking for uncertainty when all I wanted was standard error really.

    Help calculating uncertainty of slope & intercept of cal. curves. uncertainty ?s

    Homework Statement I need assistance in learning the proper way to calculate error/uncertainty in a few things for my undergrad thesis.Homework Equations 1) how to calculate the uncertainty in the slope and intercept of calibration curves (peak area vs mol of compound) I have made via excel...

    Linear algebra: solving questions that has 2 systems in it

    Homework Statement solve the 2 systems x1 + 2x2 - 2x3 =1 x1 + 2x2 - 2x3 = 9 2x1 + 5x2 +x3 = 9 2x1 + 5x2 +x3 = 9 x1 + 3x2 + 4x3 = 9 x1 + 3x2 + 4x3 = -2 the question gives this explanation by doing elimination on a 3x5 augmented matrix and the performing two back...

    Find flux of CO2: convert (μmolCO2 (mol air)^-1) to (mgC)(m^-2 of ground hr^–1)

    Homework Statement I am doing an experiment to find the difference in photosynthesis between different areas of grass. I have and am taking more measurements. But essentially I need to convert the data I have into a flux per area over time. the data logger records the data of CO2...

    Finding density of air in air column from just pressure?

    thats what I am thinking now, that my calculations are fine, but the original measurements are wrong. Which is completely possible considering we just connected a data logger to a pressure sensor with random wire and such. I'll note it in my lab report as an error.

    Finding density of air in air column from just pressure?

    Homework Statement This is for a lab I finished but cannot get this question, I spoke with the TA today and she made it make sense but I am still not getting the question correct. (2) The difference in pressure between the lowest and the highest measurement point is related to the weight of...
