Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You measure a substance three times with results of 2.00 g, 2.01 g, and 1.99 g. Calculate the average and the standard deviation of these measurements.

💡 Hint: Use the standard deviation formula considering how far each measurement varies from the mean.

Question 2

If your experimental result is 15.2 ± 0.2 (in mm), compare this with a theoretical value of 15.5 mm. Are these results significantly different?

💡 Hint: Consider how uncertainty influences significance in measurements.
