Find the uncertainty in kinetic energy. Kinetic energy depends on mass and velocity according to this function E(m,v) = 1/2 m v. Your measured mass and velocity have the following Sm = uncertainties = 1.33 kg and SV = 2.15 m/s. What is the uncertainty in energy, SE , if the measured mass, m = 2.47 kg and the measured velocity, v = -31.26 m/s?
