Checking the Accuracy and Precision of Measurements
ОглавлениеAccuracy and precision are important when making (and analyzing) measurements in physics. You can’t imply that your measurement is more precise than you know it to be by adding too many significant digits, and you have to account for the possibility of error in your measurement system by adding a when necessary. This section delves deeper into the topics of significant digits, precision, and accuracy.
