Carlos is analyzing the results of a recent scientific study about gravity. scientists recorded that the experimental value of gravity was 10.24 m/s² and the general accepted value of gravity is 9.81 m/s². calculate the percent error of the experimental versus accepted values of gravity. 5.01% 4.38% 2.66% 9.27%

-- The AMOUNT of the error was (10.24 m/s² minus 9.81² m/s ) = 0.43 m/s²

-- The error as a fraction of the true number was (0.43)/(9.81) =  0.0438 .  That's the decimal form of the error.

-- To change a number to a percentage, move the decimal point 2 places that way ==> .

0.0438  ==>  4.38% .

The error is positive, because the measurement was too big.

i don’t know what the answer is i wish i
