Measurement (Numerical)

When dealing with measurements, it is important to recognize that they differ from pure numbers due to inherent uncertainties. These uncertainties can arise from systematic errors, which cause deviations from the true value and directly impact the accuracy of the measurement.

Ther is always some uncertainty in value

arising from

'noise' Fluotations in Values

Limit on observing a Continuous Range of Values on a Measuring Scale having finite increment

Systematic Error

Causes denation of mean from True Value

determines
