10.

Systematic errors

a)

Errors due to the mistakes made by the observer when taking measurement either through incorrect positioning of the eye or the instrument

b)

Error due to the incorrect positioning of the eye when reading a measurement

c)

Errors in the calibration of instruments or the non-zero reading when the actual reading should be zero

d)

The non-zero reading when the actual reading should be zero that is the pointer of the instrument does not return to the zero position when it is not being used
