A student records four measurements of a time interval as , , , and . Match the statistical terms in List-I with their corresponding calculated values in List-II.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (A) True value | (I) |
| (B) Mean absolute error | (II) |
| (C) Fractional error | (III) |
| (D) Percentage error | (IV) |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
- B(A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)
- C(A)-(I), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(IV)
- D(A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
Correct answer
A. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
Step-by-step solution
First, calculate the true value (mean of the observations):
.
So, (A) matches with (I).
Next, find the absolute errors for each measurement:
Calculate the mean absolute error:
.
So, (B) matches with (II).
Calculate the fractional error:
.
So, (C) matches with (III).
Calculate the percentage error:
.
So, (D) matches with (IV).
The correct matching is (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV).
Answer: (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
