Doing a physics Lab and need to propagate uncertainty for experimental results. I need the uncertainty in order to add it to my

scatter plot for the error bars, therefore, I need both a positive and a negative error value. How is this done for my data? please show all work
373.67 +/- 15.444

210 +/- 12.82

239.33 +/- 19.98

443.67 +/- 17.99

Answer:

Explanation:

Not really sure what you're trying to do. You propagate uncertainties for indirect measurements, as in when you calculate a value from other values.

What you have here is a series of values of direct measurements it seems.

Anyway, for error bars will have a width of 2 times the uncertainty reported.

For example on the first one

373.67 +/- 15.444

You would have an error bar with a width of 2 * 15.444 = 30.888. This bar would be centered at 373.677. The lowest point of the error bar would be at 358.233 and the highest point at 389.121.

You also mentioned a scatter plot, but scatter plots are 2D at least. Are these measurements associated to something else like time? You need 2 coordinates for each point in a scatter plot.

Off the top of my head, I only know 9 and 11, so I'll answer those two.

9) A heterotroph is an organism that relies on other organisms for food/energy
    An autotroph can produce its own food from inorganic compounds (light)

11) Vascular plants have specialized tubes for transporting nutrients
      Nonvascular plants do not have such tubes and are simpler

Velocity is a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. ... Net force is also a vector quantity which has both mag
GuDViN [60]
When the object is moving in the elliptical orbit, it means that the direction of its acceleration should be towards the two foci (plural of focus) of the ellipse to keep the elliptical motion. As force according to the Newton's second law: F = ma, the net force must be in the direction of the acceleration. As far as the magnitude of net force is concerned, you can use Newton's gravitational law to find its magnitude.

What determines if a star turns into a red giant or a red supergiant?
mixer [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

As stars age, they evolve away from the main sequence to become red giants or supergiants. The core of a red giant is contracting, but the outer layers are expanding as a result of hydrogen fusion in a shell outside the core. The star gets larger, redder, and more luminous as it expands and cools.
