Error Bars #1
• Add to graph to show uncertainty in y
values.
• Create vector of ‘High’ values
• Create vector of ‘Low’ values
• Add as traces to y-axis
• Add extra x-axis variables
• Format as error bars
Error Bars #2
• Use vector maths to get ‘high’ and ‘low’
vectors

Pre-Processing Data
• Use vector maths to pre-process data
before graphing
• Use knowledge of physics to get data into
a straight line format
Photoelectric Effect #1
• Photoelectrons emitted from metal surface
under illumination
• Illuminate metal with light of different
wavelength
• Measure energy of emitted electrons

Photoelectric effect #2
• Use resource centre for physical constants
• Watch for confusion of e & q
• Useful functions (look-up in help system)

• Examples:
– Cooling
– Radioactive Decay
– Compound Interest
• B is time constant or rate constant
