These change the error, not the answer. How much they change it is what the verification panel measures.

There is no study group here, because no metric this exercise reports needs more than one solve. The gap force would — and it is not reported, for a reason that has nothing to do with studies: this cross-section is symmetric, so its net force is exactly zero.

Understand the model

Everything the exercise rests on, in the order it matters. Nothing here has been shortened — it has been moved out of the way of the experiment.
