Data Collection and Processing (DCP) 2
Processing Raw Data
- The data should be processed in some way, for example averaging, squaring or finding the sine. Processed data should be displayed in a table separate to the raw data table.
- The table must have headers that include units and uncertainties
- Calculate uncertainties in the repeated measurements by finding the 1/2(max value – min value) in the spread of data.
- Calculate the uncertainties in processed data by calculating the (max value – min value)/2.
- The number of decimal places in each column must be consistent with each other and the uncertainty.
- Any calculation must be explained
