The length and cross sectional area of a gas pipe are measured and tabulated in Table Q2. The actual length and area of the beam are 5.40 ft and 2.00 in², respectively. (Given 1 in=0.0254 m; 1 ft=0.3048 m) a) Analyse the errors in terms precision and accuracy found in the measurements. Present the error analysis based on average values in Sl unit and round up answers up to FOUR (4) significant digits. Length, L, (ft) 3.01 4.32 4.98 2.16 3.28 Table Q2 Cross sectional area, A, (in²) 1.98 2.03 1.89 2.05 1.96 b) Diagnose the reasons of errors may occur associated with measurement tools and ways to minimize the errors.
