A length of wood has a labeled length value of 2.50 meters. You measure its length three times. Each time you get the same value: 2.35 meters. What is the percent error of your measurements? *

Respuesta :

Answer:

6%

Explanation:

Actual length of the wood is 2.5 m

Observed length of the wood is 2.35 m

We need to find the percent error of your measurements. The formula of the percentage error is given by :

[tex]\%=\dfrac{|\text{observed-actual}|}{\text{actual}}\times 100\\\\\%=\dfrac{2.5-2.35}{2.5}\times 100\\\\\%=6\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage error is 6%.
