How does the parallax error affect your measurements?
Parallax error is the most common source of both systematic and instantaneous anomaly in experiments involving analogue measurement and great care should be taken to avoid it when recording data, supported also by repetition of each independent variable data collection stage.
How can a series of measurements be precise without being accurate?
Precision is the number of significant figures, a function of the instrument / procedure used. Accuracy describes measurement error, indicating how closely that the measurement represents the actual value. Errors affect accuracy... like the butcher's thumb on the scale.
What factor or combination of factors affect lung capacity that greatest?
I think it is physical activity and/or playing a musical instrument or singing
What instrument would be best to determine how different oxidation states affect the mass of a carbon based compound?
a balance
How do meteorologists around the world study hurricanes?
Meteorologists are using Satellite images to locate the center of eye the point around it a low pressure is formed.They will be watching the movement of this eye point. They can only tell you the probable time and location and its intensity where it may affect.
How precise is your measurement?
It depends on the measuring instrument that you use (including its calibration), how careful you are, how many measurements you take, whether or not you have allowed for external factors that could affect your measurement.
Which is not a preanalytical variable that can affect the accuracy and precision of laboratory test results?

Does playing an instrument affect your golf skills?
Learning and playing an instrument are only going to be of benfit to you.

What is the limit of accurately of the meter ruler?
Generally speaking, the limit of accuracy of any measuring device is 1/2 of the smallest marked increment. So, on a typical meter stick, you would have millimeter hash-marks, so the limit is 1/2 of a millimeter. However, one must be careful with this statement because how a measuring device is constructed, to what tolerances, and how it is used would affect the measurement. For example, if the temperature changes, the meter stick would change, and thus affect the measurement. If the end is worn, if there is human error, if one does not account for parallax, etc., then the error will be greater.
What is the more precise measurement ounces or cups?
Precision depends on the precision of the measuring device. Fluid ounces are a smaller measurement than cups, so a cup with a fluid ounces graduated scale would allow you to measure fractional cups of fluid more accurately than a cup that has only a cups graduated scale. On the other hand, for a measuring container that has both graduated scales (fluid oz and cups), there is no difference in precision when you measure fluids in whole cup increments because the meniscus (fluid measurement line) would be the same on both scales. If you want to be much more accurate in your measurements, measure by weight, for example measure using grams. Measuring by weight is better because you can avoid quantity variances that are caused by temperature-volume variations. Temperature affects volume, it does not affect mass.

Why the same galaxy can appear to have different shapes to different observers?
It can appear to have different shapes because of the viewers point of view. Also Parallax can have an affect on it! Google it for further research look up Galaxy Parallax. Glad I Could help! Another opinion: All observers see the same shape of any galaxy, and no galaxy exhibits parallax, as long as we're talking about observations taken anywhere in our solar system.
Where does accurate measurement depend?
You have to be VERY careful about what you mean when you use the word accurate. Precision is the ability of a system to produce the same answer for the same measurement time after time - 24 measurements of a single 11.95 inch piece of wood as 12 inches long, is very precise, but inaccurate. Accuracy is the ability to measure something correctly. The list of things that can affect accuracy and precision is almost endless, but generally only a very few things will affect any one measurement system. Those things include, amongst many other things, the person doing the measuring, the instrument used, the temperature, humidity, lighting, variability in the specimen being measured, any variation in any ancillary equipment used to make the measurement, such as a jig to hold the specimen etc etc etc etc
Is the unit of a number have importance in significant figures?
No, the units are independent of the accuracy. If you are measuring volume, how accurate the measurement is (or isn't) will not affect what you are measuring - it will always be volume.
