Question

What is random error (accidental)? How can it be minimized?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Random Errors:-Errors that occur due to a fault in the symmetry of the instruments.

It can be rectified by taking many trials and then finding the average of the values found.

Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Random error -

• Errors which are caused by accident (unknown and unpredictable changes) in an experiment are called as random errors.
• They are also known as accidenta errors.
• They occur as a function of precision limitation of an instrument.

# Minimization of random errors -

1. Random errors can be minimized by using a instrument with more precision.
2. Random errors can be reduced by taking average of multiple observations.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
