Answer:
2.7%
Explanation:
Given:
Uncertainty of the speedometer (u)= 2.5km/h
Speed measured at that uncertainty (v) = 92km/h
Percent uncertainty (p) is given as the ratio of the uncertainty to the speed measured then multiplied by 100%. i.e
p =
%
p =
%
p = 2.7%
Therefore, the percent uncertainty is 2.7%
