In s series of successive measurements in an experiment, the readings of the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum were found to be `2.63s,2.56s,2.42s,2.71s" and "2.80s`. Calculate
The mean absolute error in each measurement.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

By the principle of homogeneity, `a//V^(2)` is of the dimensions of pressure  and b is of the dimensions of volume.
[a] = [pressure] `[V^(2)]= [ML^(-1) T^(-2)] [L^(6)]= [ML^(5)T^(-2)]`
[b] `=[V]= L^(3)`
