Answer:

(a) 36.36%

(b) 0.36%

(c) 0.06%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the time intervals measured with a stopwatch have an uncertainty of about 0.2 s.

We want to know what is the percent uncertainty of a hand-timed measurement of:

(a) 5.5 s

Percentage = (0.2/5.5) × 100

≈ 36.36%

(b) 55 s

Percentage = (0.2/55)×100

≈ 0.36%

(c) 5.5 min

5.5 min = 5.5 × 60 s

= 330 s

Percentage = (0.2/330)×100

≈ 0.06%

Find the median of the data
kicyunya [14]
The median is the middle number of the data plot. Since there 30 numbers, there isn't a exact middle. To find the median you must add the two middle number then divide by 2. 
In this case you must add 87 and 88 which gives 175.
Then divide 175 by 2 which gives 87.5
87.5 is the median
