AQA A-Level Physics — Measurements and Their Errors

AQA 7408 A-Level Physics coverage of measurements and their errors (3.1): SI base and derived units, prefixes and orders of magnitude, estimation, systematic and random errors, precision and accuracy, uncertainty calculations and error propagation, and graphical analysis of experimental data. Phase 1 migrates the omnibus measurements lesson as a single lesson at order 0 (slug: si-units-and-derived-units). Phase 2 will split this into two distinct lessons (SI units / prefixes) and author the four further lessons on errors, uncertainty and graphical analysis.

What you'll cover

• SI Units, Derived Units and Dimensional Analysis
• SI Prefixes, Scientific Notation and Orders of Magnitude
• Systematic and Random Errors
• Precision, Accuracy, Resolution and Uncertainty
• Combining Uncertainties and Error Propagation
• Graphical Analysis and Evaluation of Experimental Data
