1.

Five capacitors are combined in parallel. Their total capacitance is their sum, i.e. Ctotal = C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5. Calculate the uncertainty in the total capacitance if their values are: (820 ± 20) x 10-9 F (220 ± 40) x 10-9 F

(560 ± 10) x 10-9 F (180 ± 40) x 10-9 F

(470 ± 10) x 10-9 F

Calculate the difference, with its associated uncertainty, between the following two readings: 57.6 ± 0.2 cm and 50.0 ± 0.1 cm

3.

The wavelength of the laser light has been calculated from the gradient of a graph to be 0.0064 ± 0.0002. Use the equation λ = gradient × d to calculate the value, with its associated uncertainty, of the wavelength λ where d has the value (1.00 ± 0.01) × 10−4 m.
