formula for uncertainty of average result (Δgbest)

sqroot(1/N ∑(Δgi)²

6
New cards

average in quadrature

method of squaring errors averaging this squares, and taking sqroot of the average

7
New cards

why are errors averaged in quadrature?

to account for the fact more measurements provide a better estimate rather than adding the errors together
