In order to solve unit 3, u need to build a strong concept base of unit 1 and 2. During an experiment there can be three kind of errors: 1. Personal ----> may be due to carelessness 2. Systematic ----> may be due to fault in apparatus 3. Random ---> maybe due to invisible unseen causes to minimize error ---> 1. Repeat it again 2. Take average what is uncertainty?

And for each of the practicals mentio n above u need to know the "safety" for each practicals. and practice questions from sample assessment and all the questions papers of june and jan papers which u can get from edexcel website and "freeexampapers" here are some notes to be noted and can be used while answering questions: during an experiment there can be three kind of errors: 1. personal ----> may be due to carelessness 2. Systematic ----> may be due to fault in apparatus 3. Random ---> maybe due to invisible unseen causes to minimize error ----> 1. repeat it again 2. take average what is uncertainty? fault in the apparatus due to limitation of apparatus limitation of apparatus = least count/ precision reliable ---> less error Precise ---> small value less reliable ---> more precise >>> reason: because its difficult to take small measurement! absolute uncertainty = least count = maximum value of uncertainty greater than least count ---> personal error percentage uncertainty = least count/measurement*100
