Measurement and Uncertainty When recording data‚ each entry should be given a corresponding estimated error‚ or uncertainty. The uncertainty gives the reader an idea of the precision and accuracy of your measurements. Use the following method for finding the uncertainty associated with any measuring device used in lab. First‚ find the least count‚ or the smallest printed increment‚ of the measuring device. On the meter sticks‚ the least count is 1 mm. On the double pan balances‚ the least count

Testing statistical significance is an excellent way to identify probably relevance between a total data set mean/sigma and a smaller sample data set mean/sigma‚ otherwise known as a population mean/sigma and sample data set mean/sigma. This classification of testing is also very useful in proving probable relevance between data samples. Although testing statistical significance is not a 100% fool proof‚ if testing to the 95% probability on two data sets the statistical probability is .25% chance

physical quantities. All engineers must use the same language in their communications‚ and one of these universal communication tools is the units of measurements. Physical quantities such as length‚ weight‚ time‚ speed‚ force‚ and mass are measured with standard units. Therefore the magnitude if a physical quantity is given by a number and standard unit of measurement. Examples: 5 meters‚ 60 kilograms. SI units are the international system of units (system international). The SI Base Units for
