MEASUREMENTS,
UNITS AND
DIMENSIONS
SYNOPSIS
SYSTEMATIC ERRORS :
The errors due to a definite cause and which
follow a particular rule are called systematic
errors. They always occur in one direction
Constant error :
Systematic errors with a constant magnitude
are called constant errors.
The constant arised due to imperfect design,
zero error in the instrument or any other such
defects. These are also called instrumental
errors.
Zero error :
The error due to improper designing and
construction.
Ex: If a screw gauge has a zero error of -4
head scale divisions, then every reading will be
0.004cm less than the true value.
Environmental Error:
The error arise due to external conditions like
changes in environment, changes in
temperature, pressure, humidity etc.
Ex: Due to rise in temperature a scale gets
expanded and this results in error in measuring
length.
Imperfection in Experimental technique or
Procedure:
The error due to experimental arrangement,
procedure followed and experimental technique
is called Imperfection error.

Absolute Errors :
The magnitude of the difference between the
true value of the measured physical quantity
and the value of individual measurement is
called absolute error.

Significant Figures :
A significant figure is defined as the figure,
which is considered reasonably, trust worthy in
number.
Eg:
= 3.141592654
(upto 10 digits)
=3.14 (with 3 figures )
=3.1416 (upto 5 digits )
The significant figures indicate the extent to
which the readings are reliable.
Rules for determining the number of
significant figures:
All the non-zero digits in a given number are
significant without any regard to the location of
the decimal point if any.
Ex: 184,52 has five significant digits.
1845.2 or 184.52 all have the same number of
significant digits that is 5.
All zeros occruing between two non zero digits
are significant without any regard to the
location of deciman point if any.
Ex: 106008 has six significant digits.
106.008 or 1.06008 has also got six sifnificant
digits.
If the number is less than one, all the zeros to
the right of the decimal point but to the first
non-zero digit are not significant.
Ex: 0.000308 has 3 significant digits.
a) All zeros to the right of a demcimal point
are significant if they are not followed by a nonzero digit.
Ex: 30.00 has 4 significant digits
b) All zeros to the right of the last non-zero
digit after the decimal point are significant.
Ex: 0.05600 has 4 significant digits
All zeros to the right of the last non-zero digit
in a number having no decimal point are not
significant.
Ex: 2030 has 3 significant digits
Rounding off numbers:
The process of omiting the non significatn
digits and retaining only the desired number of
significant digits, incorporating the required
modifications to the last significant digit is
called rounding off the number.
PHYSICAL QUANTITY:
Any quantity which canbe measured directly
(or) indirectly (or) in terms of which any laws of
physics can be expressd is called physical
quantity.
There are two types of physical quantities

steradian: The solid angle subtended at the
centre of the sphere of radius 1 metre by its surface
of area 1 square metre. Solid angle= normal area/r2.
Total solid angle that can be formed at any point in
space or at the centre of a sphere is 4 steradian.
RULES FOR WRITING UNITS:
Symbols for a unit named after a scientist
should have a capital letter. eg:N for newton, W
for watt, A for ampere.
Full names of the units,even when they are
named after a scientist should not be written
with a capital letter. Eg: newton, watt, ampere,
metre.
Units should be written either in full or in agreed
symbols only.
Units do not take plural form.
Eg: 10kg but not 10 kgs, 20W but not 20 Ws
2A but not 2As
No full stop or punctuation mark should be
used within or at the end of symbols for units.
Eg: 10W but not 10W.

Dimensionless quantities are those which do
not have dimensions but have a fixed value.

Eg: Pure numbers,angle etc.,
(b)
Dimensionless quantities with units.
Eg: Angular displacement - radian,

Dimensional variables are those physical
quantities which have dimensions and do not
have fixed value.
Eg: velocity, acceleration, force, work,
power... etc.

Principle of homogeneity:
It states only quantities of same diemensions
can be added subtracted and equated. Hence
in a Physical equation every term should have
same dimensions.
USES OF DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS
METHOD:
1.
LIMITATIONS OF DIMENSIONAL
ANALYSIS METHOD:
Dimensionless quantities cannot be determined
by this method. Constant of proportionality
cannot be determined by this method. They
can be found either by experiment (or) by
theory.
This method is not applicable to trigonometric,
logarthmic and exponential functions.
In the case of physical quantities which are
dependent upon more than three physical
quantities, this method will be difficult.
In some cases, the constant of proportionality
also posseses dimensions. In such cases we
cannot use this system.
If one side of equation contains addition or
subtraction of physical quantities, we can not
use this method.

The velocity of a spherical ball through a viscous
liquid is given by v= v0(1-ekt), where v0 is the initial
velocity and t represents time. If k depends on
radius of ball (r), coefficient of viscosity ( ) and
mass of the ball (m), then
1) k = mr/
2) k = m/r
3) k = r /m
4) k = mr
Two full turns of the circular scale of a screw gauge
cover a distance of 1 mm on its main scale. The
total number of divisions on the circular scale is
50. Further, its is found that the screw gauge has
a zero error of -0.03 mm. While measuring the
diameter of a thin wire, a student notes the main
scale reading of 3 mm and the number of circular
scale divisions in line with the main scale as 35.
The diameter of the wire is (AIEEE 2008)
