An error of less than 10% indicates good agreement. Note: There should be good agreement between the calculated and measured values. If the agreement is poor, investigate the cause of the poor agreement. Hint: to improve the accuracy of the measured frequencies you can consider several cycles (say, n cycles) and divide by n to determine time period of one cycle. In this case the error of measurement will be divided by n. “This study source was downloaded by 100000819763250 fom rsoter.com on 02162025 17:11:25 GMT-06-00 -hupsctwww.coursehero.con/fle/117599024/Lab-5.
