1. A certain geophysical technique determines the electrical resistivity of the ground by measuring the voltage, V, and current, I, between electrodes separated by a distance, a. These measurements are related to resistivity by the equation, resistivity = 2ra (V/I). If V= 0.512 + 0.01 volts, I=0.00684 + 0.0001 Amps, and a = 1.00 + 0.01 meters, what is the uncertainty in the resistivity. (Note: The units of resistivity are ohm-meters. The numbers in this problem are given in such a way that no unit conversions are necessary.)
