If you measure the mass of an object four times and get values that are very close to each other the measurements are said to be?

If you take a measurement multiple times, and get similar values each time, then the data is said to be very precise. If this group of data is very close to the expected value, then the data is said to be accurate. However, a set of data may be precise without being accurate if the measured values are all similar to one another, but not close to the expected value.

What object is equal to a meter?
A meter is approximately:The height of a child.The length of a large step.The width of a table.You may want to do some measurements to see which is close enough for your purposes. You can measure some other things, too.
What is when measurements are close to the accepted value?
The term is accuracy
What is the difference with precision and accuracy?
Accuracy refers to how close a measured value is to an excepted value. Precision refers to how close a series of measurements are to one another For example, if your experimental value is 15.63 and your values are... 12.84 13.02 12.96 They would be precise because they are close to one another but not accurate because they're not even close to the experimental value
what is the difference between accuracy and precision?
''Accuracy is the degree of closeness to true value. Precision is the degree to which an instrument or process will repeat the same value. In other words, accuracy is the degree of veracity while precision is the degree of reproducibility.
What is the term used to describe how close a group of measurements are to each other?
It is precision.
If you measure the mass of an object four times and get values that are very close to one another the measurements are said to be .?
The measurements can be said to be "near enough" (depending on how accurate the results must be).I would take the average of the four times the measurements were recorded.
Is precision refers to how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value?
No. accuracy is a measure of how close the measurements are to the true value.
Why do 'normal' measurements for heart rate and blood pressure cover a range of values?
because all the people are different but their heart rates and blood pressures are close to each other but vary so you have to measure heart rates etc. using a range of values being normal

What is the difference between the accuracy of measurements and the precision of measurements?
Precision is how close your measurements are. Accuracy is how close your measurements are to the actual measurement.
Does density have matter?
No it is a compound measure of how close together matter is packed in an object.
What demonstrates repeated measurements that are close to one another?
Repeated measurements that are close to one another demonstrate reproducibility.
What do Repeated measurements that are close to one another demonstrate?
Repeated measurements that are close to one another demonstrate reproducibility.
Is length a constant?
No, length is a relative measure. If an object is travelling close to the speed of light it undergoes Lorenz contraction.
What is the weight of density?
density has no weight, it is a measure of how close the atoms in an object are packed. mass per unit volume.
If two measurements are very close to each other then they are?
Precision refers to how close together a group of measurements actually are to each other. Precision has nothing to do with MORE
Produces measurements that are close to one another?
