What will I learn?

This concise, hands-on course on measurements and uncertainties leads you through planning a precise pendulum experiment, measuring length and period accurately, and calculating uncertainties using straightforward statistical methods. You will propagate errors to determine g, create an error budget, evaluate against standard values, and produce clear, reproducible reports to improve all your future measurements.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Uncertainty propagation: calculate g using partial derivatives and relative errors.
  • Error budgets: identify main error sources and improve pendulum measurements quickly.
  • Statistical tests for agreement: rigorously compare measured g to standard values.
  • Precision in timing and length: plan repeated trials and determine 1-sigma errors.
  • Professional lab reports: display g ± u(g), units, significant figures, and percentage error.
