.c. The relative deviation (d,) of a measurement or experimental data is the deviation divided by the mean. The relative deviation may be expressed in percent. d, = r100 = |x;-x -x100 The relative deviation may also be expressed in parts per thousand or ppt (by changing the factor 100 to 1000) or in terms of parts per million or ppm (by changing the factor 100 to 1,000,000). The choice of factor to use depends on the magnitude of the ratio. The relative deviation (ppt) of 17.29% Cu is d. The standard deviation, s, measures how closely the data are clustered about the mean. The smaller the standard deviation, the more closely the data are clustered about the mean, the more precise is the measurement. For a finite number of measurements, the standard deviation, s is " d? S = || (n-1) (n-1) IMPORTANT: The average and the standard deviation should end at the same decimal place. The standard deviation, s, of the results of the %Cu present in the metal alloy is

In a certain population, body weights are normally distributed with a mean of 152 pounds and a standard deviation of 26 pounds. How many people must be surveyed if we want to estimate the percentage who weigh more than 180 pounds? Assume that we want 96% confidence that the error is no more than 4 percentage points.
% error = (experimental value - accepted value) x 100 Accepted value Siver 10.06cm^3 -10.49cm^3 *100 / 10.49 Is this correct ?
If the mean value of certain set of eight measurements was 45.74, and standard deviation S=0.35. What is the confidence interval at 95% confidence level for the mean?

The points on the bullseye are measurements whose exact value is the center of the bullseye. Indicate the correct statement: (A). The points of target 3 have clearly less standard deviation than that of target 2. (B). Target 2 points have the worst repeatability of all. (C). The points of target 3 are a set of measurements that lead to a fairly accurate value of the variable, but the instrument cannot be considered very precise. (D). Target 4 points only have systematic errors.
Hi! I m working on a lab right now. I have three measurements, 1.057 .9442 .9629 and a mean measurement of .9880. Im supposed to find the deviation and I understand that i just find the difference, but can a deviation be negative?
There samples of the same metal are weighed and their masses are found to be 42.02 g.4.63 g, and 44.16g. The corresponding volumes are 455 ml., 5.11 ml., and 4.84 m., respectively. Determine the density, d, of the metal and calculate the standard deviation of the density. d= The densities of several metals are given in the table.
