Mass Accuracy Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate Mass Accuracy is:

\[ A = 100 - \left| \frac{mm - em}{em} \right| \times 100 \]

Where:

\( A \) is the mass accuracy (%)
\( mm \) is the measured mass
\( em \) is the exact mass

What is Mass Accuracy?

Mass accuracy is defined as the closeness or proximity of the measurement of mass to the exact or theoretical mass of an object or material in question. It is expressed as a percentage and is a crucial parameter in fields requiring precise mass measurements.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Measured Mass (mm) = 98.5
Exact Mass (em) = 100.0

Using the formula:

\[ A = 100 - \left| \frac{98.5 - 100.0}{100.0} \right| \times 100 = 100 - \left| \frac{-1.5}{100.0} \right| \times 100 = 100 - 1.5 = 98.5\% \]

The Mass Accuracy is 98.5%.
