A uniform slope was measured by the method of stepping. If the difference in level between two points is 1.8 m and the slope distance between them is 15 m, the error is approximately equal to
cumulative, + 0.11 m
compensating, ± 0.11 m
cumulative, - 0.11 m
none of these
Answer: Option

Error is positive.

And here we have to find an error. Therefore positive cumulative.

Slope correction is always subtracted from slope distance. So correct answer is C.

@Saurabh.

An error that increases with the size of the sample revealing it.

Here is the relation b/w - error & correction.

CORRECTION = -(ERROR).

Santosh said:   7 years ago
Slope correction is always nagetive. So error due to slope is positive.

Perwez Quraishi said:   7 years ago
Slope correction must be always negative. So, option C will be correct.

G.K said:   9 years ago
Error due to slope correction is always +ve so from option it's +0.11.

0.108 only coming ~.11 in slope error is only cumulative +0.11.

Sloping error is always positive and cumulative in nature.

What is the difference b/w cumulative and compensating?
