Question

In the same experiment, your data are collected in the following table: Compute the missing% error in the table (corresponding to L = 0.6 m). Its value is: A) 980 m/s^2 B) 5.0% C) 3.0% D) Equal to the average of the other ones What is the meaning of %error? A) It tells us how big the result is with respect to 0 B) It tells us the difference between the value for T given by the formula and the value we measured in the lab, expressed as a percentage of the value given by the formula C) It tells us the difference between the value for T given by the formula and the value we measured in the lab, expressed as a percentage of the measured value D) It is the same as %difference

Explanation / Answer

17. Percentage error =

(Experimental value - theocratical value )/theoretical value *100

=( | 1.6324 - 1. 554685169| / 1.554685169 ) * 100

= 4.99875 % = 5.0 %

hence the right choice of answer is option "B ".

18. Percentage error = difference in the measured value with given theoretical value relative to given value.

hence the right choice of answer is option " B ".
