Question

During an experiment, Aika measured the time it took for a ball to roll down a ramp set at an angle. She measured that it took 1.010 seconds. The exact time it should take based on calculations is 0.904 seconds. What was her experimental error?

Answer 1

Answer:

11.725%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

True value = 0.904 seconds

Measured time = 1.010 seconds

Experimental error :

(|measured value - True value | / true value) * 100%

(|1.010 - 0.904| ÷ 0.904) * 100%

= 0.106 / 0.904 * 100%

= 0.1172566 * 100%

= 11.725%
