1. Pride of Pakistan, World's second highest
peak, K-2, summit of
8611 meters.
2.
Physics is a branch of science which studies the nature and behavior of matter, energy, and the interaction between them.
3. A derived quantity is defined based on a combination of base quantities and has a
derived unit that is the exponent, product or quotient of these base units.
4. The
ticker timer is simply a piece of apparatus that we use to measure time.
5. The standard units of electrical measurement used for the expression of
voltage is the
Volt [V].
6. The standard units of electrical measurement used for the expression of
current and resistance is the
Ampere [A).
7. The standard units of electrical measurement used for the expression of
resistance is
Ohm ().
8. The way in which the derived quantity is related to the basic quantity can be shown by the
dimensions of the quantity.
9. Any experiment will have a number of measurements, and which will be made to a certain degree of
accuracy.
10.
Systematic errors happen because of
faulty apparatus.
11. Incorrectly labelled scale, an incorrect zero mark on a meter or a stop watch running slowly are
systematic errors.
12.
Random errors depends upon how well the experimenter can use the apparatus.
13.
Graphs are visuals that show relationships between
variable.
14.
Graphs are intended to display the data in a way that is easy to understand and remember.
15.
Graphs are used to demonstrate trends, patterns and relationships between sets of data.
16.
Independent Variable is the
cause.
17. Value of
independent Variable is independent of other variables in our study.
18.
Dependent Variable is the
effect.
19. Value of
dependent Variable depends on changes in the independent variable.
20. The
significant figures refer to the number of important single digit (0 through 9 inclusive) in the coefficient of an expression in scientific notation.
21.
Accuracy is the degree to which the result of a measurement conforms to the correct value or a standard' and essentially refers to how close a measurement is to its agreed value.
22.
Precision is the quality of being exact' and refers to how close two or more measurements are to each other, regardless of whether those measurements are accurate Or not.
23.
Resolution is the ability of the measurement system to detect and faithfully indicate small changes in the characteristic of the measurement result.
