having a large sample size
Factors such as instrument precision, human error, environmental conditions, and calibration accuracy can all contribute to measurement error in an experiment. It's important to account for these sources of error and take steps to minimize them in order to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the results.

Just what the phrase implies. the error is in the instrument, such as a compass being so many degrees off, to be distinguished from Operator Error in reading or interpreting the instrument. usually applied to compasses and sometimes seismometers, the error is a design or workmanship (at the plant) flaw not an error by the observer or operator, though calibrations on some compasses are confusing,the Germans using the standard card but in (tens of degrees) hence 27 actually meant 270 Degrees- due West. 27 Degrees is a non-cardinal angle just shy of lPM to use the( Twelve o"clock analogy) that might be both observer and design error!
A source of error in an experiment refers to any factor that can lead to inaccuracies in the results or measurements. This can include systematic errors, such as calibration issues with instruments, or random errors, such as variations in measurements due to environmental factors. Human error, such as misreading instruments or incorrect data recording, is also a common source of error. Identifying and minimizing these errors is crucial for improving the reliability and validity of experimental outcomes.
A common source of error in an experiment could be measurement inaccuracies caused by instrument limitations, human errors, or environmental factors such as temperature fluctuations. Additionally, inconsistencies in sample preparation, experimental procedure, or data collection can also introduce errors into the results.
the precentage of error in data or an experiment
If the instrument being used is not calibrated or the instrument contains some error or bugs then reading obtained from such instrument would have some error. Such error arising because of the instruments preceding errors is termed as "Back-action Error".
how to reduce the problem of random error and systematic error while doing an experiment
Systemic or precisely Systematic Error in a reading taken by an instrument occurs due to the parts installed in it. Random error occurs when we get a number of repetitive readings during the same experiment because of human error. Perfect example for random is "Parallax Method".
limiting error in an instrument is the specification of accuracy within a certain% of a full scale.
it is the problem with the instrument that is being used.Even if it is a new instrument, it needs to be caliberated before performing any kinds of experiment. It can be avoided if lab is free from any form of damages including environment the instrument is kept in. Random errors are mainly due to wrong handling of the experimental procedure. That is why to avoid random errors more than one trial are performed.
