If you measure the mass of an object four times and get values that are very close to each other the measurements are said to be?
If you take a measurement multiple times, and get similar values each time, then the data is said to be very precise. If this group of data is very close to the expected value, then the data is said to be accurate. However, a set of data may be precise without being accurate if the measured values are all similar to one another, but not close to the expected value.
What must be true for two ratio of two measurements to be a conversion factor?
The measurements must be equal to each other.
Which ratio of your body measurements fits the Golden Ratio?
None. There are some measurements which, in some people, are approximately equal to the Golden Ratio but those same measurements, for other people, are not.
What is the difference between customary measurements and the metric measurements?
Metric measurements use powers of 10. Any other system has NO bases or logic.
what is the difference between accuracy and precision?
''Accuracy is the degree of closeness to true value. Precision is the degree to which an instrument or process will repeat the same value. In other words, accuracy is the degree of veracity while precision is the degree of reproducibility.
If two measurements are very close to each other then they are?
Precision refers to how close together a group of measurements actually are to each other. Precision has nothing to do with MORE
What refers to how close a group of measurements of the same parameter are to each other?
Estimate
What does the reproducibility of data refer to?
the reproducibility refers to how close a group of measurements are to each other
What term refers to how close a group of measurements of the same parameter are to each other?
Estimate
How can a measurement be accurate but not precise?
Precision: how close measurements are to each other Accuracy: how close measurements are to the "true" or accepted value. If you do 3 trials of an experiment and you get 1.00 grams, 1.01 grams, and 1.03 grams as your answers but the real value was supposed to be close to 6.79 grams, your data was precise but not accurate.
What do you call a huge group of stars close to each other?
A galaxy
Which term describes how close measurements are to each other?
Generally, this term is called ACCURACY.
Measurements and other observations?
Measurements refer to the quantification of physical attributes, such as length, weight, or temperature. Observations involve gathering information using the five senses or instruments to study and describe phenomena. Both measurements and observations are key components of scientific research and experimentation.
What is the difference between affiliated with and affiliated too?
i belive with would describe a faction or group as on the other hand to would describe a person
What is the meaning of 'scientific?
Precision is defined as how close measurements are to each other. Example: 4.3, 4.4, 4.4 are precise because they are close to each other. If the "correct" answer is 4.4, they are also accurate. If the "correct" answer is 4.0, they are not very accurate, but they are still precise.
What is a close-knit community?
a group of people that work together, and support each other
