of quantities that remain constant, or vary only

quite slowly are

• Dynamic characteristics

• Static characteristics

• Kinematic characteristics

• Slow characteristics

The ability to 'tell the truth' of an instrument is

• Accuracy

• Repeatability

• Precision

• Resolution

______________is defined as the ability of an instrument to reproduce a certain set of readings within given

accuracy.

• Precision

• Decision

• Reliability

• Incision

The ability of an instrument to reproduce a group of measurements of same

measured quantity, made by same observer, using

same instrument, under same conditions.

• Reliability

• Eligibility

• Accessibility

• Repeatability

Precision depends upon
