II. Now that you have read the concepts of accuracy and precision, from what you have learned, answer
the following questions below.
1. What is accuracy?
Accuracy is defined as a collection of measurements or a degree of conformity and correctness

of something when compared to or close to the standard or absolute value. The accuracy of an
experiment, object, or value is a measurement of how closely results agree with the true or
accepted value.
2. What is precision?
Precision is the degree to which repeated measurements under the same conditions are unchanged.
Values in precision must be consistently exact. In other words, the precision of an experiment, object, or
value is a measure of the reliability and consistency.
3.Why is it important that we consider accuracy and precision in Physics?
Accuracy and precision are important aspects of Physics since we need to have a thorough
understanding of measurement in this field of study. In every experiment or study, measurement is
important to come up with a certain quantity. However, in every measuring tool or every measurement
we do, we cannot always guarantee that there will be no room for errors that is why precision and
accuracy are vital when taking measurements because both of these will tell us whether the attained
quantity is close enough to the accepted value.

1. We could have identified the magnitude if the angle on mica’s position was given so the
magnitude is considered as undefined while the direction of Ax⃗ is east and the direction of

Skydiving:
I believe the skydiver with his hands tucked is the one who had less deceleration since he is in
front, resulting in less speed reduction, and this is why during tandem skydiving instructors are
those at the back to have greater control.
Navigation:
Turbulence is when a burst of kinetic energy enters the air through which a planes flies, that
energy in turn causes sudden, unpredictable changes in the pressure and velocity of a fluid.
Furthermore, there is always a relationship between the wind and the speed to derive the
velocity, and even during turbulence, the resultant velocities may be computed using basic
vector addition methods. Turbulence, on the other hand, happens when there is a crosswind or
when the wind blows on both sides. During turbulence and crosswind, it is typical for those in
charge of the aircraft to apply the Pythagorean Theorem and SOH CAH TOA to determine the
magnitude and direction of the resultant velocity of the aforementioned aircraft.
Tug of War
In the provided case, the vectors in the center of the rope would have arrows going to my
team since my team is pulling the rope more on our side, causing the net force to be inclined to
my side and drawing the center of the rope away from the other side.
