Errors problem 1


Which experimental technique reduces the systematic error of the quantity being investigated?


  • adjusting an ammeter to remove its zero error before measuring a current

  • measuring several internodal distances on a standing wave to find the mean internodal distance

  • measuring the diameter of a wire repeatedly and calculating the average

  • timing a large number of oscillations to find a period
