Answer all questions in Part A. Answer any one question from each unit in Part B.
Part A
What are the types of errors in measuring instruments?
Answer
Errors in measuring instruments are primarily classified into three types: Gross errors (human mistakes in reading or recording), Systematic errors (instrumental, environmental, or observational errors that are consistent), and Random errors (unpredictable variations due to unknown causes).
Enumerate the static characteristics of an instruments.
Answer
The static characteristics of an instrument include: 1. Accuracy, 2. Precision, 3. Sensitivity, 4. Resolution, 5. Linearity, 6. Hysteresis, 7. Threshold, and 8. Drift.

In the Wheatstone bridge, the values of resistances of various arms are P= 1000 Ω, Q= 100 Ω, R= 2,005 Ω and S= 200 Ω. The battery has an emf of 5 V and negligible internal resistance. The galvanometer has a current sensitivity of 10 mm/μA and an internal resistance of 100 Ω. Calculate the deflection of the galvanometer and the sensitivity of the bridge in terms of deflection per unit change in resistance.
