What is metrology the science of?
Scientifically speaking, metrology is the science of measurement. Unlike other scientific fields, metrology covers all levels of uncertainty in any field of science and technology.
How does information system can reduce uncertainty?
how an information system can reduce uncertainty
What is the difference between error and uncertainty?
error, was happening when you are not really sure enough about it...uncertainty,was the thing that you understand
How do you measure uncertainty?
To measure uncertainty, you need to know the precision of the instrument, which refers to the smallest unit that an instrument can measure. A measurement can then be represented with its associated uncertainty, such as X = (5 +/- 1) cm. In this case, the actual value can deviate from the mean (5cm) by 1cm, so the minimum and maximum values ate 4cm and 6cm respectively. The percentage uncertainty is calculated by (absolute uncertainty / mean value) * 100%.
Which german scientist formulated the 'uncertainty principal'?
In 1927 Werner Karl Heisenberg published his uncertainty principle stating that you cannot know the precise location of a particle and know its momentum at the same time.
Why is it said that science can not tell us whether or not to smoke?
Science has indeed stated that people should not smoke. There is no uncertainty about it.
What has the author Michael Power written?
Michael Power has written: 'Organized uncertainty' -- subject(s): Risk management, Uncertainty, Economics 'A designer's log' 'Accounting and Science'
What is metrology the science of?
Scientifically speaking, metrology is the science of measurement. Unlike other scientific fields, metrology covers all levels of uncertainty in any field of science and technology.
Is estimation considered as uncertainly to some extent?
Yes, there is some uncertainty. Estimation is not an exact science. It is someone's best educated guess.
Identify three types of uncertainty when you run a business?
There are three types of uncertainty when owning or managing a small business. The three types of uncertainty are state uncertainty, effect uncertainty and response uncertainty.
How do you calculate uncertainty?
There are several ways to calculate uncertainty. You can round a decimal place to the same place as an uncertainty, put the uncertainty in proper form, or calculate uncertainty from a measurement.
What is uncertaity?
In science uncertainty is an you are not sure of. Ex. so if you measure a cord to be 6.8 centimeters you must turn it into 6.80 after you do that 0 is your guess number so then you add the uncertainty of .01 like this 6.80+.01 p. s. the + must have a minus sign underneath it
What is uncertainty?
Uncertainty is not being sure of something.
What does uncertainty mean?
In science, uncertainty refers to the precision of your measurements. No matter what instrument you use the last figure you write down is the figure with the uncertainty. A burette is carefully manufactured to measure volume but the manufacture knows that there will be some uncertainty - the burette can be read with confidence to with in 0.1 mL. That means that the volume reading 25.3 ± 0.1 mL is correct. When a calculation is done with this volume the uncertainty is converted to a percentage uncertainty. The scientist understands that every measurement has some uncertainty in it and this uncertainty is contained in any answer. When the answer is written down it must take account of the uncertainty of the measurements. When calculating the calculator may have 8 figures in the answer but these figures are meaningless if the the starting figures were uncertain after the 3rd figure.I'm not entirely certain.
What is the uncertainty of 1.93cm?
That is a statement of a fixed length. There is no uncertainty about that.
What is a sentence using the word uncertainty?
Your uncertainty is evident.
States that is imposible to know both the velocity and the position of a particle at the same time?
The heisenberg uncertainty principle is what you are thinking of. However, the relation you asked about does not exist. Most formalisms claim it as (uncertainty of position)(uncertainty of momentum) >= hbar/2. There is a somewhat more obscure and less useful relation (uncertainty of time)(uncertainty of energy) >= hbar/2. But in this relation the term of uncertainty of time is not so straightforward (but it does have an interesting meaning).
