Activity 2

Wow! things get harder and harder. i thought on the first activity that it's all that we need to report data. But here comes activity 2. Error and error propagation. One type of error aside from the uncertainty was introduced. It's the deviation. And it makes things more complicated together with the addition of the absolute and relative errors. I've learned here how to add subtract, multiply or divide on best estimates. It's quite confusing because in adding or subtracting  you should use absolute uncertainty and in multiplying and dividing, relative uncertainty should be used. It also bacame harder when we computed multiple operations on best estimates. the differences between precision, accuracy, acceptability, and practicality are also explained. Then our professor gave us homework on other methods of estimates and errors. Because it uses statistics, I cannot understand many of these things.
