A student is studying the simple harmonic motion of a
spring. She conducts an experiment where she measures the amplitude
and period of an undamped system to be 26 ± 2 mm and 0.40 ± 0.020
seconds, respectively. Using the equation for displacement as a
function of time y(t) = Acos(ωt), what is the uncertainty of her
displacement calculation in mm for t = 0.050 ± 0.0010
seconds?
