4. How to Propagate Uncertainties When Multiplying by a Constant

When conducting scientific or engineering calculations, it is crucial to consider the uncertainty associated with the measurements. Uncertainty propagation is the process of determining the uncertainty in the result of a calculation based on the uncertainties in the input values. When multiplying by a constant, the uncertainty propagation is relatively straightforward, yet it requires careful … Read more
