or more quantities, each with their individual uncertainties, and then combine the information from these quantities in order to come up with a final result of our experiment. How can you propagation of error state your answer for the combined result of these measurements and their

uncertainties scientifically? The answer to this fairly common question depends on how the individual measurements are combined in the error progression wiki result. We will treat each case separately: Addition of measured quantities If you have measured values for the quantities X, Y, and Z, with uncertainties dX, dY, and dZ, and your error propagation example final result, R, is the sum or difference of these quantities, then the uncertainty dR is: Here the upper equation is an approximation that can also serve as an upper bound for the error. Please note that the rule is the same for addition and subtraction of quantities. Example: Suppose we have measured the starting position as x1 = 9.3+-0.2 m

and the finishing position as x2 = 14.4+-0.3 m. Then the displacement is: Dx = x2-x1 = 14.4 m - 9.3 m = 5.1 m and the error in the displacement is: (0.22 + 0.32)1/2 m = 0.36 m Multiplication of measured quantities In the same way as for sums and differences, we can also state the result for the case of multiplication and division: Again the upper line is an approximation and the lower line is the exact result for independent random uncertainties in the individual variables. And again please note that for the purpose of error calculation there is no difference between multiplication and division. Example: We have measured a displacement of x = 5.1+-0.4 m during a time of t = 0.4+-0.1 s. What is the average velocity and the error in the average velocity? v = x / t = 5.1 m / 0.4 s = 12.75 m/s and the uncertainty in the velocity is: dv = |v| [ (dx/x)2 + (dt/t)2 ]1/2 = 12.75 m/s [(0.4/5.1)2 + (0.1/0.4)2]1/2 = 3.34 m/s Multiplication with a constant What if

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data We have made a standard tank in our lab. I need to calculate the uncertainty in the concentrations of the compounds we added to the http://lectureonline.cl.msu.edu/~mmp/labs/error/e2.htm tank. 2. Relevant equations My professor indicated that I would need to use error progression to calculate an accurate uncertainty for the tank. I need some help understanding how this is done. Searching online he may have meant uncertainty propagation. For the tank we calculated the final concentrations this way. 1) volumetric injections of compounds. 2) pressurized tank with nitrogen gas. 3) calculated volume of tank by https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/help-understanding-error-progression.517214/ filling with nitrogen to a measured pressure and calculating the volume using ideal gas law 4) weighed tank before and after addition of compounds and gas, so we know the weight of the nitrogen. 5) calculate concentration by converting to mols and dividing mols of compound by mols of nitrogen in the tank. So the measurements we have are injection volumes ex: 180 uL +- 2.5 pressure reading 1.01 bar +-0.01 Weight of N2 7.0 g +- 0.1 3. The attempt at a solution I understand what uncertainty is, I have calculated the uncertainty in the final concentrations, but only using the uncertainty in the volumes of compound we added to the tank like +-2.5 microliters. Is there a function in excel to calculate the uncertainty using error progression? That is what I used to calculate the tank concentrations.

There’s no way past it. I’ve also posted this on the Steam forums but no solutions have been offered yet. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: - Backing up and deleting my save game from My Documents/SavedGames/Rayman Legends - Backing up and deleting the files from Program Files/Steamapps/Common/Rayman Legends/Gamesave - Uninstalling the game and Uplay. I used Revo Uninstaller to make ensure all game data is wiped. Reinstalled Uplay from their website, rather than through Steam. - Running Uplay in compatibility mode for Windows 7 - Running Uplay as an administrator - Starting Uplay and the game without being connected to the internet Now I’m out of ideas. At this point, I wouldn’t mind beginning the game from scratch but I can’t get past this blooming error message!
