It is important because PRECISE means exact, and exact measurements are important because it tells you the actual measurement of an object, other than to tell you an estimate, not knowing the exact measurement of that object

Why are the stopwatch measurements not precise?
The measurements are not as precise as they could be because many peoples' response times are of the order of a tenth of a second. This makes it pointless to have a stopwatch recording times to a hundredth of a second.
Explain how a series of measurements can be precise without being accurate?
yes
What determins the precision of a calculated result based on measurements?
the precision of the least precise measuement
Which one of the measurements is precise 1009mm56ft132in81yd?
1009 mm1009 mm1009 mm1009 mm
Why is the origin important when graphing points on the coordinate plane?
It is because all measurements are taken from that point: it is the fixed point of reference.
Why is it important to both accurate and precise when you make measurements?
Sh*t means Feces or Faeces
Why is it important to be both accurate and precise when makeing measurements?
Sh*t means Feces or Faeces
Why is 8.1956 most precise measuring device?
It is not; there are more precise measurements.
Which two measurements are the most prrecise?
Radio-Telescope measurements are the most precise
Why are precise measurements important?
the reason why is because precise means, the smaller the unit is the more precise the measurement will be.it's like the smaller the better.It is important because it is close to the exact amount.
Can a measurements be both precise and accurate?
yes...
What is the meaning of this sentence they observed precise measurements in constructing pyramids?
It means they (the builders, or architects) possessed/had very precise(exact) measurements when they were constructing (building) the pyramids.
What is the most precise measurment 6cm or 2.5cm?
2.5cm is the most precise measurement of the two measurements.
How precise are measurements to instruments?
They depend on the design of the instrument.
Why are the stopwatch measurements not precise?
The measurements are not as precise as they could be because many peoples' response times are of the order of a tenth of a second. This makes it pointless to have a stopwatch recording times to a hundredth of a second.
Are precise measurements always accurate?
No. A broken clock gives a very precise time, but most of the time it is wrong.
Why would it be important for your lab results to be both accurate and precise?
A group of precise measurements are a group of repetitive measurements that are very close together. Ie the standard deviation between the measurements is small. Not to be confused with a accurate measurement! Think about it like this, if you measure a piece of wood 5 times and each time you get an identical answer then the measurement are said to be precise. If however if turns out that despite measuring the length 5 times and getting the same answer you discover that the length is significantly off from the "true" answer, then you were inaccurate!
