Question

Label the following statements as true (T) or false (Fair) High precision and high accuracy are equivalent Resolution uncertainty is usually treated as systematic uncertainty. The strain gage we used in the lab used a half bridge to compensate temperature effects The micrometer we used to calibrate the proximity probe has a resolution of 1/1000 in The mean of random errors goes to zero if we take sufficiently large number of tests A gage factor of 2.0 is used in our strain gage indicator. In our cantilever beam lab, the strain gage is used to verify the Hook's law and the proximity probe is used to verify the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory For a good fit of the experimental data, both the coefficient of determination and the standard error of estimate are desired to be as small as possible The proximity probe we used output in DC voltage At low frequency of the signal source, DC coupling measurement in the oscilloscope is adequate

Explanation / Answer

a) False, precision refers to the closeness of one or two measurements with each other.Accuracy refers to the closeness of measured value to standard value.

c.True,

d.False

e.True

f.True

h.True

I.True

J.False
