This is physics lab. There is the procedure and then i need to fill the blank on the table 1

Transcribed Image Text:Procedure:
I. Measurements averages, absolute errors, and relative error.
a. Select the six largest cylinders from the set;
b. Use the caliper to measure their diameter (d) in centimeters. Record your measurement in table 1,
including the uncertainty given by the measuring tool;
c. Use the ruler to measure their height (h) in centimeters including the uncertainty given by the
measuring tool. Record your measurements in table 1.
d. Calculate the average diameter and the average height of the cylinder set. Remember unweighted
N
average is found as: x =
e. Determine the absolute error in your set of measurements, to do so first find the absolute value of the
difference between each measurement and their average, record that on table 1. Then find the
average of the difference, basically: Ax = -
N
f. Record your diameter and height using the average, absolute error format, (X = x±Ax);
g. Determine the relative error in your measurements; &x ==;
nd?
h) of the cylinders
