In a physics text book I read the following:
e/m=1.758820150(44)×1011C/kg
In this expression, (44) indicates the likely uncertainty in the last two digits, 50.
How should I understand this uncertainty? Does it mean ±44 on the last two digits?
Answer
e/m=1.758820150(44)×1011 C/kg=(1.758820150×1011±0.000000044×1011) C/kg
