The length of a pencil is measured using part o zrlth s,/3any nzuk495hzw;1f a metre rule;/g td- bsnui9rxc7t / that is graduated in millimetres, as shown dtr/bcngut x 9/7-;is below.

What is the length of the pencil?

A. $(6.00 \pm 0.10) \; cm$
B. $(6 \pm 0.1) \; cm$
C. $(6 \pm 0.05) \; cm$
D. $(6.00 \pm 0.05) \; cm$


参考答案:  A


本题详细解析:
With a millimetre scale we can take each reading to ±0.5mm, following the i a4;,cwdoc;c.(p nyk rule that the uncertainty is half the smallest division. So when we subtract our two readings to get the lengpoynaw 4;( dci;ck, c.th of the pencil, we have to add the absolute uncertainties, giving 0.10cm. The length must be presented to the same number of decimal places as the uncertainty.
