Question

What are the causes of systematic and random error and how can they be

minimized?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Systematic error can be difficult to identify and correct. Given a particular experimental procedure and setup, it doesn't matter how many times you repeat and average your measurements; the error remains unchanged. No statistical analysis of the data set will eliminate a systematic error, or even alert you to its presence. Systematic error can be located and minimized with careful analysis and design of the test conditions and procedure; by comparing your results to other results obtained independently, using different equipment or techniques.
