Which errors might occur when measuring length of object​

Physics
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Generally errors are classified into three types: systematic errors, random errors and blunders. Gross errors are caused by mistake in using instruments or meters, calculating measurement and recording data results.Measurement Error (also called Observational Error) is the difference between a measured quantity and its true value. It includes random error (naturally occurring errors that are to be expected with any experiment) and systematic error (caused by a mis-calibrated instrument that affects all measurements).

A. How long does it take light to travel through a 3.0-mm-thick piece of window glass?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

a) 1.517\times10^{-11} s

b) 3.41 mm

Explanation:

a)

We take the speed of light, c = 3.0\times10^8 m/s and the refractive index of glass as 1.517.

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance/speed

Refractive index, n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

n=\dfrac{c}{s}

s=\dfrac{c}{n}

t=\dfrac{d}{c/n}

t=\dfrac{dn}{c}

t=\dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times1.517}{3.0\times10^8}

t=1.517\times10^{-11}

b)

We take the refractive index of water as 1.333.

Speed in water = speed in vacuum / refractive index of water

Distance = speed * time

d=s\times t

d=\dfrac{c}{n_w}\times \dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times1.517}{c}

d=\dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times 1.517}{1.333}

d = 3.41 mm
