Errors and Uncertainty in Physics Measurement.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Blasiak, Wladyslaw – Physics Education, 1983
Classifies errors as either systematic or blunder and uncertainties as either systematic or random. Discusses use of error/uncertainty analysis in direct/indirect measurement, describing the process of planning experiments to ensure lowest possible uncertainty. Also considers appropriate level of error analysis for high school physics students'…
