Which property of a measurement is best estimated from the percent error?
Measurement error: obviously!
If a measurement is small is the percentage error high?
yes, it is. The smaller the measurement, the higher the percentage error.
Why are several trials taken for each measurement in an experiment?
A good way to reduce error or increase measurement accuracy is to take several measurements and compute their average. In other words, you achieve accuracy through averaging. (This also validates the repeatability of the measurement.)
What are the two factors affects accurate measurement?
Calibration error and measurement error. Also, if the measurements are of different objects there may be random error.
How can reduce the percentage error?
The larger the sample, the lower the % error.. so to reduce a % error, increase your sample size.
