A distance R is measured to be 5.400±0.003m. What is the absolute uncertainty in R^-2?
The first screenshot displays the question, and the second screenshot displays the section of the book that's relevant to the problem. So far, there have been two incorrect answers given:
a.) 2.82 x e^-(1.51 x 10^12), and
b.) (1.60*10^-19)^-(2.04*10^11)
If someone can solve this problem, it would be deeply appreciated!
By what approximate factor, in powers-of-ten notation, is a human being (height about 2m ) larger than the nucleus of a hy drogen atom, or proton (diameter about 10^(-15)m )?
