Because sometimes if you dont you wont do good ex. A hospital was ordered to pay 7,000 pounds for failing to train a doctor in medical equipment use. This resulted in the doctor accidentally delivering painkiller
at 10 times the required dose to a 59 year old man. He died of an overdose after recovering from an operation to unblock leg arteries. An out of court settlement was reached with the family.
so if u ever want to get into medicine you need to know how to measure exact.
to make accurate and precise measurements, so that we can compare stuff accurately on a scale, instead of saying that this apple is bigger, with a weighing scale, we can say that Apple x is 15g while Apple y is 20g so Apple y is heavier.
So your eyes do not burn.
So that others can understand and repeat the measurements.
It is important to remove the filter funnel before adjusting the level of the burette so as to prevent the residual drops of the reagent from dripping into the burette. Which can lead to inaccurate volume readings.
So they can protect themselves from chemicals in the lab.
Accuracy of measurements in the lab is crucial because it ensures the reliability and validity of experimental results. Accurate measurements help in drawing correct conclusions and making informed decisions based on the data collected. Inaccurate measurements can lead to erroneous interpretations and wasted resources.
Accuracy is crucial in the lab because it ensures the reliability of experimental results. Precision is needed for reproducibility and to make valid conclusions based on the data collected. Inaccurate results can lead to incorrect interpretations and potentially dangerous consequences in various scientific fields.
Yes, accuracy can depend on the precision of the instrument. The precision of an instrument determines the level of detail and resolution in measurements, while accuracy refers to how close the measured value is to the true value. Higher precision can improve the accuracy of measurements by reducing random errors, but it does not guarantee accuracy if there are systematic errors present in the instrument.
There is no tolerance for errors at all. So the accuracy is expected to be absolute.

So you can make sure you have everything for the next day which will be the day you do the lab (:
To take anthropometric measurements, you typically need a measuring tape, scale, and stadiometer. Key measurements include height (measured standing straight against a wall), weight (using a scale), and circumferences (such as waist and hip) measured at specific anatomical landmarks. It's important to ensure the subject is in a relaxed, standing position and to record measurements in consistent units. Accuracy is crucial, so repeat measurements may be taken for reliability.
measuring devices are really important so that you can give accurate information regarding measurements.

Accuracy is whether or not the average of all of the trials in a specific experiment is equal to the intended amount--it may have been given to you or you may have to do some calculations to determine the correct amount. Accuracy is important in an experiment so one can come up with the correct answer. One one to deter from having accurate measurements is having random or systematic errors (random=fault on experimenter's behalf, systematic=error in calibration of an istrument). Precision, on the other hand, entails the reproducibility of an experiment. This just means that all trial results were fairly close to each other. This does not necessarily mean the experiment was accurate, however, as precise measurements can be all close to each other but far away from the intended result. This could be the result of a systematic error. Accuracy and precision are both important to have in an experiment as it ensures both a correct result and reproducibility.
because they are both a reliable measurement and is both accurate and precise
