(23) What is the order of magnitude of the absolute error? _____________ (24) What is the order of magnitude of the measurement? _____________ (25) What is the relative precision (expressed as a percent)? _____________ (26) What is the absolute precision? _____________ (27) What is the absolute precision in a measurement of 4.26 x 10-4 tesla ) 15% ? _____________ Failure? I think failure is quitting. John Connally, from Rachel Schriever We must exchange the philosophy of excuse for the philosophy of responsibility. Barbara Jordan This exercise mixes symbolic notation and unit notation. For instance, the symbol for mass is m but the unit for mass is kg; whereas the symbol for displacement is s but the unit for displacement is m (meter). Note that the m as a symbol (mass) is much different than the m as a unit (meter). The first letter in this exercise uses symbolic notation and the letters in the parentheses indicate the units. You really don't need to know now what all the symbols and units mean. It's just doing algebra in a little different way, but for instance in matching selection A., which is v (m/s), the v stands for velocity and the m/s stands for meters per second. So any velocity can be measured in meters per second. Match the letters above with the number questions
