Error Analysis question

|dw:1486526665700:dw|

Nnesha:

Given dimensions \[1.32 \pm 0.01 ~~~~~ by~~~~~~ 3.25 \pm 0.01 \] and thickness \[8.0 \pm 0.1 \] \[\rm using ~the~ propagation~ of~ error~ relationship ~: (\frac{ \delta D }{ D })^2= (\frac{m \delta X}{X})^2 +(\frac{n \delta Y}{Y})^2 +(\frac{p \delta Z}{Z})^2\] write the expression for the relative error in the volume (deltaV/V) calculated from the measured data

Nnesha:

\[\rm (\frac{ \delta D }{ D })^2 = (\frac{ m \delta X}{X})^2 +(\frac{n \delta Y}{Y})^2 +(\frac{p \delta Z}{Z})^2\] *

@mathmale

Allison:

Do yew still need help?

Nnesha:

yeah....??

osprey:

I can't upload a powerpoint thing for some reason. Add the fractional errors in each measurement separately. Multiply by 100 for the %ge error. Calculate the volume and quote the volume with the calculated %ge error is one way of doing this.

sillybilly123:

For Volume(??).....it's unclear......try: \(V = xyz\) \(\ln V = \ln xyz = \ln x + \ln y + \ln z\) And then, by differentials.... \(\dfrac{dV}{V} = \dfrac{dx}{x} + \dfrac{dy}{y} + \dfrac{dz}{z}\) For Surface Area (mmmmm....????.....squared terms), that should be easier.

Nnesha:

hahah i think i know you

Nnesha:

actually 100% lol

Nnesha:

:/ ...

sillybilly123:

and......so what ?!?!

Nnesha:

Nothing. Thanks for the help.

sillybilly123:

😂 mp, ma'am

Nnesha:

mp= my problem ?

sillybilly123:

mp = my pleasure/privilege :)

Nnesha:

ohh ok.

Nnesha:

V= LWH \[\frac{ \delta V }{ V }=(\frac{\delta L}{L} )^2 +(\frac{\delta W}{W})^2+(\frac{\delta H }{H})^2\]

Nnesha:

\[(\frac{ \delta V }{ v })^2\]**

Nnesha:

\[\frac{ \delta V }{ V } =\sqrt{( \frac{\delta L}{L})^2+(\frac{\delta W}{W})^2+(\frac{\delta H}{H}^2)}\]

Nnesha:

\[ \delta V=V\sqrt{(\frac{ 0.01 }{ 1.32 })^2+(\frac{ 0.01 }{ 3.25})^2+(\frac{ 0.1 }{ 8.0 })^2}\]
