Uncertainty Calculator vs Active Defender

Uncertainty Calculator evaluates the error propagation throughout the mathematical expressions comprised of variables of uncertain value. The application allows input of up to three value-error pairs (A, B and C), that can be used as a parameters in the final expression. Error values should be provided in absolute (100 +/- 5) or in relative format, the latter should appear in percent format (100 +/- 5%). The evaluated expression can include numerous functions, that provided by row of the appropriate buttons. Components and functions can be added directly to the expression field by pressing the corresponding buttons. To encompass expression into the preset formula, select the expression and press the corresponding formula button. Particular attention should be paid to placing brackets to avoid equation ambiguity. The application deals with independent, random errors. So if this is a case never use A + A, but rather 2*A and never A*A*A but rather A^3! Obviously, different parameters can be combined in any way (A+B or C *A^2 .. is perfectly fine). Angles for trigonometric functions can be provided in degrees or radians, and that should be reflected by setting a yellow button to "DEG" or "RAD". Bear in mind the importance of units in any of calculations! Implementation Examples: 1.The charge passing through an electrical circuit is defined by: Q = I * t, where I is the current and t is the time. Calculate the total charge value when a current of 0.15 ± 0.01 A passes through the circuit for 120 ± 1 s: Input: A = 0.15 ± 0.01, B = 120 ± 1 The final expression will be A*B, and press Calculate: The final value will be: 18 ± 1.2 Thus, it can be reported the total charge as 18 C ± 1 C. Important! One should only report as many significant figures as are consistent with estimated error! So the value should be rounded to the rightmost decimal place at which error applies. 2. A ball is tossed straight up into the air with initial speed vo = (4.0± 0.2) m/s. After a time t = (0.60 ± 10%) s, the height of the ball is h = vo*t - 0.5gt^2 = 0.636 m (g = 9.80 m/s^2). What is the value and uncertainty of height? Input: A = vo = 4.0 ± 0.2, and B = t = 0.60 ± 10%, then the final expression should be: A*B – 0.5*9.8*B^2 The final value will be: 0.6 ± 0.4 (meters).

Imagine there is an emergency at a school or a business. During emergencies, there can be a lot of chaos and confusion. Active Defender provides a real-time emergency map that removes the confusion. Everyone can know where to go and what to do regardless of the emergency. IMPORTANT! To use this app in your school or business, make sure they have a cooperate Active Defender account. You will get a login from your school or school district to fully login, connect, and participate with this app. Active Defender can INSTANTLY provide a multistory emergency map: To First Responders To Students To Staff To Vistors Everyone can know what to do and where to go! Active Defender’s purpose is to provide clarity and remove chaos while making sure everyone knows what the problem is and where the problem is relative to where they are located. WHY? Because you only make good decisions based on what you know and where you are. Focus on “safety and security is everyone’s responsibility.” Whether there is a fight, fire, active shooter, medical emergency, or extreme weather event, Active-Defender gives real-time, life-saving information to everyone that needs to know. Active-Defender allows you to: - Warn other staff members, school resource officers, and first responders with the touch of a button that an emergency is taking place. - Receive map alerts as to the exact nature and location of the crisis. - Use the chat window to engage in real-time communication with responders. - Provide details to others on your campus while simultaneously giving first responders the information they need to respond with speed and precision. Active-Defender: Saves Time - Provides Clarity - Saves Lives!
