A digital thermometer reads 15 degrees Celsius, what is the uncertainty?

Physics

Artyom0805 [142]3 years ago

The uncertainty of the accurate measurement of temperature with a digital thermometer ranges from -1 to +1. So, here in this case, the uncertainty in temperature will be 14 degree to 16 degree Celsius.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Uncertainty in Measurement

The measurements of objects we observe through our eyes using analog or digital equipment, have some uncertainties. it's not surely the accurate measurement that we observe. Hence, while taking measurements, we must have taken an uncertainty range in the values.

For example, if we take a digital thermometer, which measures the temperature as 15 degree Celsius; it means that the accurate temperature may vary from by the difference of either -1 or + 1 i.e., either 14 degree Celsius or 16 degree Celsius. The same way, the uncertainty range is -0.5 to +0.5 when we use analog thermometer.

For safety reasons, a worker’s eye travel time in a certain operation must be separated from the manual elements that follow. Th
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The answer is 12.67 TMU

Explanation:

Recall that,

worker’s eyes travel  distance must be = 20 in.

The perpendicular distance from her eyes to the line of travel is =24 in

What is the MTM-1 normal time in TMUs that should be allowed for the eye travel element = ?

Now,

We solve for the given problem.

Eye travel is = 15.2 * T/D

=15.2 * 20 in/24 in

so,

= 12.67 TMU

Therefore, the MTM -1 of normal time that should be allowed for the eye  travel element is = 12.67 TMU
