Objectives and Agenda Homework Review Estimations (from IB 1.1) IB 1.2 Uncertainties and Errors Sources of error Accuracy and Precision Assignment: IB 1.2 Uncertainty and Errors Practice Sheet, p1

Estimation Another common skill for any physics problem is to estimate the order of magnitude for your answer so you can judge whether your calculated answer is reasonable or not. To estimate, Round all quantities to (one sig fig with an order of magnitude) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fKBhvDjuy0 Powers of 10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfSNxVqprvM Cosmic Eye Perform the needed calculation using your new simple numbers to find a one sigfig order of magnitude estimate of the answer. Ex: The frequency of visible light is between 430 nm and 770 nm and the speed of light is 3.00 x 108 m/s. If the speed = frequency * wavelength, estimate the order of magnitude for the wavelength of visible light.

IB Estimation Reference points

Accuracy and Precision Accuracy – low % error – how close is the Average to the Expected Precision – small range – how close are the data to each other

Types of Sources of Uncertainty Two Sources of uncertainty Systematic errors Random errors Systematic (should be minimized with careful attention to lab techniques) Instrumental (Ex: Every piece of measuring glassware has an uncertainty associated with it. Marked on the glassware.) Procedural (Ex: During a chemical processing, every transfer from one vessel to another creates some additional error) Tends to influence resulting data to be skewed in one direction

Types of Sources of Uncertainty Random Can never remove uncertainty because of the fundamentally random nature of the motion of atoms. Influence of the observer (uncertainty principle) Tends to increase uncertainty of a measurement in all directions. Error vs a mistake

Default uncertainty In any measurement there is an assumed level of uncertainty. Consider the last significant digit. The default uncertainty present is one half of the value of this digit. For example: 5.7 m implies a measurement between 5.65 and 5.75, or any of the many possible numbers that could have been rounded to 5.7. This corresponds to a default uncertainty of ±0.05 m. The standard format for reporting a quantity with a stated uncertainty is: 5.7 ±0.05 m Uncertainties are always reported with only one sigfig. The unit is given only once.

Practice Assess the uncertainty in the following and report the values with their uncertainty 32.3 kg 0.32 cm 15.72 mL
