    This document contains a problem set from an Electrical Measurements and Instrumentations course. It includes 13 questions about measurement errors, systematic vs random errors, loading effects of instruments, calculating mean, median and standard deviation from data sets, determining maximum possible errors due to known percentage errors in measurements, and calculating resistance from measurements with known errors. Students are asked to explain concepts and calculate values related to measurement errors and instrumentation.

    Problem Set #2 Measurement Errors Question 2.1 Explain the difference between systematic and random errors. What are the typical sources of these two types of errors? Question 2.2 In what ways can the act of measurement cause a disturbance in the system being measured? Question 2.3 What procedures are normally taken to avoid measurement errors when using instruments that are subjected to changing ambient conditions? Question 2.4 For the circuit given in fig.(1), if the instrument measuring the output voltage across 270 ohm resistance has resistance of 5000 ohm. What is the measurement error due to the loading effect of the instrument? Question 2.5 For the circuit given in fig.(2), if the instrument measuring the output voltage across 500 ohm resistance has resistance of 4750 ohm. What is the measurement error due to the loading effect of the instrument?
