A student is studying simple harmonic motion of a spring. She conducts an experiment where she measures the amplitude and period of an undamped system to be 24 ± 2 mm and 0.40 ± 0.020 seconds, respectively. Using the equation for displacement as a function of time y(t) = Acos(ωt), what is the uncertainty of her displacement calculation in mm for t = 0.050 ± 0.0010 seconds? Please explain thouroughly.
