What was the name of the first standard measurement unit used to measure the length?
Well the SI unit of length is the meter, and SI is the first standard measurement system...
Is transmittance a more accurate measurement?
Transmittance is a measurement of the amount of light that is able to pass through a material, and it can be used to accurately determine the amount of light that is transmitted. However, the accuracy of the measurement depends on factors such as the quality of the equipment used and the conditions under which the measurement is taken. Therefore, while transmittance can provide an accurate measurement, it is important to ensure that proper procedures and equipment are used to minimize errors.
Why does using standard measurement important?
Standard measurements make it easier for everyone to know what that measurement means. The metric system, which is the standard system used by scientists, is specifically designed to be easy to use. The English system is much more complicated, mathematically.
In statistics what shows how far away a measurement is from the mean or average of the set?
The "z-score" is derived by subtracting the population mean from the measurement and dividing by the population standard deviation. It measures how many standard deviations the measurement is above or below the mean. If the population mean and standard deviation are unknown the "t-distribution" can be used instead using the sample mean and sample deviation.
