Question 1

  1. You find thatstatistical uncertainty is your largest measurement uncertainty andthat the IV value is your largest propagated uncertainty. How canyou try to improve both uncertainties in the simplest, but mosteffective way?

    Choose fromthese answers

    start over to collectthe same number of DV measurements as before, but at a greatervariety of IV data points than before

    take more measurementsfor the DV values at the IV data points already measured

    collect DV data fornew IV data points  

    take more measurementsfor the DV value at the IV data points already collected and addmore IV data points

    use a new DVinstrument to take more  DV measurements forthe  IVdata points already collected and collectadditional DV data for more IV data points not previouslymeasured

    use a new IVinstrument but the same DV instrument to collect the same number ofmeasurements at a wider variety of IV data points

    use a new IVinstrument but the same DV instrument to collect more DVmeasurements than before at the same IV data points

All the options mentioned above have relative effectiveness when compared to one another Option 1 Start over to collect the same number of DV measurements as before but at a greater variety of IV data points than before is not likely to reduce the statistical uncertainties or the measurement and adding greater variety of data would likely increase the statistical uncertainty so this is not an effective option Option 2 Take more measurements for the DV values at the IV data points already measured is a viable option because when the number of observation or the    See Answer
