  1. ENTC 4350 HOMEWORK SET 2

  2. Chapter 4, Question 5. • List seven factors in making a good measurement: Error, validity, reliability, repeatability, accuracy, precision, resolution.

  3. Chapter 4, Question 18. • List several types of characteristic errors. • zero offset. • gain • processing • linearity • hysteresis • repeatability • resolution.

  4. Chapter 4, Question 19. • For digital systems, overall error must include the quantization error caused by the digital nature of the circuits.

  5. Chapter 4, Question 21. • A voltage measurement error is caused by the integration time window of a digital voltmeter. This is a dynamic error.

  6. Chapter 4, Question 22. • If a low-impedance voltmeter is inserted into a high-resistance dc circuit, a instrumentinsertion error is created.
