MEASUREMENT OF PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND CALCULATION OF ERRORS

Abstract

measurements of physical magnitudes and error calculations are processes of importance in the scientific and technical fields. Physical magnitudes are quantities expressed in units of measure used to represent natural phenomena around us. Their identification and correct measurement form the foundation of scientific research, industrial production, medicine, engineering, and many other fields. In any measurement process, the capabilities of measuring instruments, environmental conditions, measurement methods and the qualification of the measuring person affect the accuracy and correctness of the result. For this reason, it is considered important to identify and calculate errors in order to correctly assess the measurement process and results.
