Uncertainties in Physics Course
This course equips you with practical skills to handle uncertainties in physics measurements. You will learn to design simple experiments, select instruments, control errors, estimate and propagate uncertainties using Type A and B methods, apply significant figures, and produce professional reports with clear data and defensible results, enhancing the reliability of your work.
