It is very important because scientists, especially the ones with empirical experiments and results, are prone to error and the empirical data is in need to be under strict observation done not only by many scientists but also by expermiented ones. This guards everybody to change the parameters suddenly which can affect the real results of an experiment

It is important to consider the experimental error in all empirical results because it is a measure of the accuracy of the results and the reliability of the method. It gives insight on how wrong the results are and how the method can be improved.

<h3>Further Explanation </h3>

Accuracy

No measurement is completely accurate. There is always some degree of error in the measurements. The closeness of a measurement to the true value is called accuracy.  

Precision

Precision is how close measurements are to each other. Higher precision instruments allow the measurements to be very close to each other and give a better approximation of a measurement and increases the accuracy of the reading as well.  

Experimental errors are considered to ensure that the data or the method is accurate and reliable. The lower the experimental error, the more confidence we have that the measurement is near the true value. It also provides insight about how to optimize the method to yield better results.

Kinds of Experimental Error

Random error

Random errors are errors that are beyond the control of the experimenter. These are variations that happen by chance and may be reduced by performing multiple trials and averaging the results.

Systematic error

Errors incurred by the way the experiment was conducted are called systematic errors. Their effect cannot be reduced by doing more trials but by changing the design or the method used to obtain the results.

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Maximum force of friction possible = μmg

= .65 x 3.8 x 9.8

= 24.2 N

u = 72 x 1000 / 60 x 60

= 20 m /s

v² = u² - 2as

a = 20 x 20 / (2 x 30)

= 6.67 m / s²

force acting on it

= 3.8 x 6.67

= 25.346 N

Friction force possible is less .

So friction will not be able to prevent its slippage

It will slip off .

A striped billiard ball moves toward the right with speed 3 m/s. A solid billiard ball with the same mass moves toward the left
Helen [10]

Answer:

Final speed of striped ball is 3 m/s in left direction .

Explanation:

Given :

Two billiard ball with the same mass moves toward the left at the same speed 3 m/s .

Let , us assume right hand side direction to be positive and left hand side direction to be negative .

Also , let speed of ball after collision is (striped ball ) u and (solid ball) v .

It is also given that the collision is elastic .

Therefore , kinetic energy is conserved .

\dfrac{m(3)^2}{2}+\dfrac{m(3)^2}{2}=\dfrac{mu^2}{2}+\dfrac{mv^2}{2}\\\\u^2+v^2=18 ...... ( 1 )

Also , by conserving linear momentum .

We get :

3m-3m=mu+mv\\u=-v                ...... ( 2 )

Putting value of u from equation 2 to equation 1 .

We get :

2v^2=18\\v=3\ m/s

And , u = -3 m/s .

Therefore , final speed of striped ball is 3 m/s in left direction .

Hence , this is the required solution .
