A error in measurement is when the measurement taken is not actually correct. For instance, you measure a gap as 49 centimetres wide. You cut the plank of wood to fit that measurement. Then discover the wood you have just cut is too wide to neatly fit the gap. There has been an error in the measurement you have taken.
Measurement error: obviously!
yes, it is. The smaller the measurement, the higher the percentage error.
Calibration error and measurement error. Also, if the measurements are of different objects there may be random error.
The more precise your instruments of measurement are, the less percentage of error you will have.
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.

Divide the calculated or estimated error by the magnitude of the measurement. Take the absolute value of the result, that is, if it is negative, convert to positive. This would make the percent error = | error / measurement |.

the purpose and function of standard error of mean
The absolute error can be as large as 1.5
The relative error depends on the true value of the measurement. That information has not been provided.
If the number of significant digits is correct, this measurement should be between 4.6 and 4.8 and thus have a possible maximum error of 0.1.
It should but it probably will not because of: experimental error measurement error calibration error (zero error)
Is error comes when the line of sight does not coincide with the optical axis of theodolite.
