Wellesley College Physics Prof. Glenn Stark explains how to calculate how uncertainties in experimentally measured quantities "propagate". In part 1 he shows ...
No reasoning is given for considering the uncertainty as +/- 0.7 cm for the
case of the half = 10 cm. The +/- 0.7 cm is not intuitive, and seems
lacking logic. There is something behind which is not said. What about
working on 1 cm, or even 0.1 cm, instead of 20 cm, will its uncertainty be
considered in both cases as +/- 0.7 cm. Is "adding" uncertainty to become
+/- 0.7 cm logic?. Where is the "general role" that everybody may apply?
This adds "ambiguity" to the whole issue rather than removing it as
assumed. No one can accept uncertainty of +/- 0.7 cm on a piece of 1 cm in
length , for not to talk about the uncertainty of +/- 0.7 cm on a piece of
0.1 cm in length, otherwise we are in a world of "science fiction" rather
than in a real "physical world". Roles, whatever they are, cannot drop the
"simple intuitive logic". What does "this uncertainty" mean after all this
strange story?
