Q1
The true errors (second): 6, -5, -2, 4, 3, 4, 0, -2, -1, -1, 6, 3
According to the definition of variance,
12

∑ ε 2i
σ^ 2= 1
=13.08

The standard deviation = 3.6

Q2
The true value of a discrepancy is zero, and therefore the discrepancies are true
errors. According to the definition the variance of the discrepancy should be

2

di
σ d=
n
The discrepancy is the difference between forward run and backward run, i.e., d = f –
b. Using the error propagation, the variance of the difference is 2 times of the variance
of the forward run or backward run, i.e.,
2 2
❑d =2❑
where is the variance for one-way run. The variance of the mean of the forward
and backward runs is /2. And therefore the variance of the mean is the variance of
the discrepancy /4, i.e.,

(2) Given the variance of each observation 
(a) The variance of the mean of n observations = /n
(b) The variance of the summation of n observations = n*
(3) Assume the variance of height difference for each set-up is 
(a) The variance of the height difference for a leveling line his n* based on
the above 2(b).
(b) Based on the length of a leveling line, the variance of the height difference for
a leveling line h= S(km), where is the variance for a 1 km leveling
line, and S(km) is the length of the leveling line in km. The derivation is as
follows:

( Ss ) σ = 1000 S(km)
σ 2h=n σ 2 = 2

σ =σ S (km)

where s is the average length in m for each set-up and S is the total length of
the leveling in m.
