Uncertainty propagation question #2
Hi all, I am trying to calculate the uncertainty and volume for a rectangular block with the measurements being 8.7cm, 5.2cm, 5.4cm. I am struggling with the uncertainty propagation, and I am unsure if I did this correctly. Heres what I've tried.
I found the uncertainty for each individual measurement to be .1 because they all have 1 decimal place. I Added this to the formula with the measurements, took the square root of the sum of the squares with the uncertainty for each individual measurement being in the numerator and the measurement in the denominator, as follows: √(.1/8.7)\^2 + (.1/5.2)\^2 + (.1/5.4)\^2. My final answer was volume= 244.296 +/- .029 cm\^3. I rounded the uncertainty that I got from the equation to 2 significant figures because that’s what the smallest measurement has. Did I do this correctly?

During the experiment if you could triple the breakaway magnetic force with all other quantities left unchanged, what is the new value for the critical velocity if it was v0 (initial velocity), initially? (b) now if you halved the radius with all other quantities left unchanged, what is the new critical velocity if it was v0 (initial velocity), initially? (c) if during the experiment, critical velocity quadrupled with all other quantities left unchanged, what is the new breakaway force if its magnitude was initially f0,?
