Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In an experiment, the voltage is measured as 12.0 V with an uncertainty of ±0.5 V. What is the maximum possible error in the voltage measurement?
Correct Answer: ±0.5 V
  • Step 1: Understand what voltage is being measured. In this case, it is 12.0 V.
  • Step 2: Identify the uncertainty given in the measurement. Here, it is ±0.5 V.
  • Step 3: Recognize that the maximum possible error in a measurement is represented by the absolute uncertainty.
  • Step 4: Conclude that the maximum possible error in this voltage measurement is ±0.5 V.
