Remarks:
random errors and their source depends on the type of experiment and
the types of measuring instruments being used. Sources of random
error include observational error, Electrical Noise and irregular changes
in the heat loss rate from a solar collector due to changes in the wind.
2. The act of measurement itself can cause disturbance to the system in
a way that something new is being added to the system which can
introduce potential abnormalities to the system. If a thermometer
exposed to a cold environment for a long time is used to obtain the
temperature of the hot water in a beaker, then chances are the cold
temperature of the thermometer would in a way contaminate the
object to be measured by inducing coldness to the hot water which will
add error to the measurement.

a.) A probability density function (PDF), or density of
a continuous random variable, is a function that describes the relative
likelihood for this random variable to take on a given value. (Source:
