Remind yourself about linear least squares fitting in section
3.2 of the lab manual, and then work through the following. In a
particle physics experiment, there are six detectors at positions x
= 10; 14; 18; 22; 26; and 30cm. These detectors measure the y
positions of the trajectory of a charged particle to be 2.02; 2.26;
3.24; 3.33; 3.92; and 4.03 cm, respectively (i.e., the first
position is (10,2.02), the second position is (14,2.26), and so
on). The errors...
