Table 1.9: Results for Coefficient of Discharge Cd. Calculation For Experimental Error In order to calculate the experimental error for the value of Cd obtained experimentally to its theoretical value of 0.98, the following calculations are carried out. Experimental Value of Cd 0.94 Accepted Value of Cd 0.98 0.97-0.98 = -0.01
|- 0.01| = 0.01 0.01 0.98
= 0.0102 0.0102 x 100% = 0.1% Experimental error = 0.1%
