Accurate or precise are one and the same to which the automotive speedometer would never be.
You could do it by saying that all your measurements were 10 centimetres - irrespective of what they actually were. That would be neither precise nor accurate but it sure would be consistent!
Yes, the markings on your 50 mL beaker would be accurate enough to use for precise meansurement of volumes. The markings on a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask would also be accurate enough.
The word accurate is a synonym for precise. So the most accurate (or precise) answer would be 57.213 because it is more accurate if the number is not rounded.
Millimetres would allow for more precision than decimetre. If you can measure a smaller quantity, this always allows you to be more precise and accurate.
The word inaccurate means not accurate or imprecise. Some antonyms for the word inaccurate would be correct, right, factual, precise, true and accurate.
The adjective is "precise" (accurate). The noun is "precision." The astronomical term would be "precesses" (subject to precession). The similar plural words are "processes" (actions as part of an activity) and "princesses" (more than one princess).
Police speed guns in England are caliberated before they are used in speed tests on the road and when they complete their tests, how I don't know, but I would presume by testing it on their own vehicles?? I would say they are pretty much accurate.
Yes, it is important to have accurate measurements in an experiment because they can directly impact the validity and reliability of the results. Inaccurate measurements can lead to flawed conclusions and unreliable data. Using precise measuring instruments and techniques helps ensure the quality of the experiment.
Precisoin is how consistent you are to hitting a target, for instance if you were shooting free throws, and you always hit the front of the rim that would be precise but NOT accurate. And accuracy is both precision and accuracy. So instead of being precise by hitting the front of the rim, you would make the shot by being accurate.
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!
A graduated cylinder would be more accurate for measuring the volume of a liquid compared to a beaker. This is because graduated cylinders have more precise volume markings and allow for more accurate readings due to their narrow and uniform shape.
An example of something precise and accurate using darts would be hitting the bullseye in the center of the dartboard with multiple throws. Each throw consistently lands in or near the bullseye, demonstrating precision and accuracy in aiming and targeting.
