How close a measurement is to the actual value?
This is termed the accuracy of the measurement.
What determines how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value?
This value is variable and different for each type of measurement. The error can be absolute or relative. A measurement without any error doesn't exist.
What is absolute error?
Absolute error is the difference between an estimated or measured value and it's actually value.For Example:To determine the absolute error you would have to have a measurement or an estimate of whatever this object is. At which point you would take the difference between the estimated value and the actual value.For example: 21.571 is the True value 20.000 is the Recorded Value.Thus: (True value) - (Recorded Value) = Absolute error (21.571) - (20.000) = 1.571
How closely a measurement reflects the actual value is what?
llol
How close a measurement is to the true or accepted value is called?
This is the accuracy of a value.
How close the measures value is to actual value?
This is termed the accuracy of the measurement.
The ability to make a measurement that is as close to an actual value is called a...?
The ability to make a measurement that is as close to an actual value is called accuracy. Accuracy is the extent to which a measured value agrees with the true value of a quantity.
How close a measurement is to the actual value?
This is termed the accuracy of the measurement.
What are accuracy?
Refers to how close a measurement is to the true or actual value.
How close a measurement is to the true value is?
Accuracy
What determines how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value?

Which term describes how close a measurement is to the true value?
Accuracy describes how close a measurement is to the true value.

IF The weight of a rock is measured at 2.5 pounds what is the percent error in this measurement?
The percent error is calculated by taking the absolute difference between the measured value and actual value, dividing it by the actual value, and then multiplying by 100. If the actual weight is not provided, the percent error cannot be calculated.
The closeness of a measurement to its actual value is a measurement is called?
It's signature figures
What is the difference between the accuracy of measurements and the precision of measurements?
Accuracy refers to how close a measurement is to the true value, while precision relates to how consistent repeated measurements are to one another. In other words, accuracy describes the closeness of a measurement to the true value, while precision describes the repeatability of the measurements.
What word tells you that a measurement is an estimate?
"Approximate" is often used to indicate that a measurement is an estimate or close to the actual value.
