Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a weight is measured as 10 kg with a 0.2 kg error, what is the maximum possible true weight?
  • Step 1: Identify the measured weight, which is given as 10 kg.
  • Step 2: Identify the error, which is given as 0.2 kg.
  • Step 3: To find the maximum possible true weight, add the error to the measured weight.
  • Step 4: Perform the addition: 10 kg + 0.2 kg = 10.2 kg.
  • Step 5: The result, 10.2 kg, is the maximum possible true weight.
  • Measurement and Error – Understanding how to calculate the maximum possible true value based on a measured value and its associated error.
