Thanks so much, I think I have it.
Would you mind having a look over my calculations? I am 100% sure of them as I would expect a far greater error.
Example Calculations:
θ=arctan(6/28)
θ=0.21 radians
sinθ=0.21
Propagation of Uncertainty:
Let r= y/L
∆r= (√((∆y/y)^2+ (∆L/L)^2...
Homework Statement
I conducted an experiment which involves measuring two distances (Y and L) and have used tan to determine the angle, then finally calculated the sine of the angles for use in my analysis.
I have uncertainties in both length measurements and am unsure how to propagate the...
