IF The weight of a rock is measured at 2.5 pounds what is the percent error in this measurement?
It depends on the calibration of the instrument you are measuring with.

A student measured the mass of an object and found it to be 658 grams. The actual objects mass is known to be 755 grams what is the percent error of the measurement?
It is approx 12.8%.
IF The weight of a rock is measured at 2.5 pounds what is the percent error in this measurement?
It depends on the calibration of the instrument you are measuring with.
What are percent errors?
A percentage error for a measurement is 100*(True Value - Measured Value)/True Value.
What is the percent error of the measurement 4 cm?
Percent error is calculated by the measured value and the acceped value. For example, if you measure a piece of paper and decide it is 8.45in long, that is your measured value. The package says it is 8.5in long, so it is the accepted value. The formula for percent error is |measured value - accepted value| divided by accepted value ALL times 100.
If percent error in measurement of mass is 3 percent and percent error in measurement of velocity is 4 percent then what will the percentage error in measurement of kinetic energy?
Kinetic Energy = 1/2 (mass) (velocity)2Measurement of mass is in error by 3%.Measurement of velocity is in error by 4%.If both are low, then KE is measured as(True KE) x (.97) x (.96)2 = 0.894 TKE = 10.6% low.If both are high, then KE is measured as(True KE) x (1.03) x (1.04)2 = 1.114 TKE = 11.4% high.If one is high and the other low, then the net error is in between these limits.
What is the percent uncertainty for the measurement given as 4.19m?
When giving the result of the measurement, its important to state the precision or estimated uncertainty, in the measurement. The percent uncertainty is simply the radio of the uncertainty to the measured value, multiplied by 100. 4.19m take the last decimal unit, is 9 but with value of 1/100 .01 is the uncertainty Now, .01/4.19 x 100 % = 0.24%

Measurement error: obviously!
How many is 1 percent in meters?
That depends what the measurement is one percent of.
