ReviewDetermination of errors from measurements
Two types – random (statistical) and systematicRandom errors – intrinsic uncertainty (limitations)
Can be determined from multiple measurementsMean and standard deviation, standard deviation of the mean
Propagation or uncertainties through formulas

Example Exam Question
You want to determine the torsional constantfor the wire you used in the last experiment.You do this by measuring the period of oscillation. You make 5 measurements of 15.1 s, 13.2s, 14.4 s,15.4 s and 14.6 s. What is the best value for the15.4 s and 14.6 s. What is the best value for thetorsional constant κ with the proper number ofsignificant figures and uncertainty. You also determined the moment of inertia to be(2420 ± 120) g cm2.
