Five pendulum-period measurements are $2.63$ , $2.56$ , $2.42$ , $2.71$ and $2.80 s$ . Find the average absolute error in seconds to two decimal places.

Answer:

0.11

Solution:

Absolute deviations from $2.624$ are $0.006$ , $0.064$ , $0.204$ , $0.086$ and $0.176 s$ .

Mean absolute error $= \frac{0.536}{5} = 0.1072 s \to 0.11 s$ .
