a. What is the precision of this measurement?

b. What is the uncertainty?

c. What is the tolerance?

d. State the acceptable diameter in the format, nominal value uncertainty.

Respuesta :

(a) The precision of this measurement is 17.64 mm ± 0.01 mm.

(b) he uncertainty of the measurement is 0.057%.

(c) The tolerance of the measurement is 0.02 mm.

(d) The acceptable diameter in the format, nominal value uncertainty is 17.64 mm ± 0.057%.

Measurement of a wire

A micrometer screw gauge is used in the measurement of a wire. The measuring accuracy of a micrometer screw gauge is 0.01 mm.

The precision of the measurement is 17.64 ± 0.01 mm.

Uncertainty of the measurement

The uncertainty of the measurement is calculated as follows;

uncertainty = (error/actual measurement) x 100%

uncertainty =  (0.01/17.64) x 100% = 0.057%

Tolerance of the measurement

Tolerance = maximum measurement - minimum measurement

                 = (17.64 + 0.01)mm - (17.64 - 0.01)mm

                 = 0.02 mm

Acceptable diameter

0.057% of 17.64 mm = 0.01 mm

Range of uncertainty = (17.64 mm - 0.01 mm) to (17,64 mm + 0.01 mm)

                                    = 17.63 mm to 17.65 mm

Acceptable diameter format, = 17.64 mm ± 0.057%
