参考答案:  A


本题详细解析:
With a millimetre scale wes*jieiv5c +)s can take each reading to ±0.5mm, following the rule that the uncertainty is half the smalles cssi5ev* )j+it division. So when we subtract our two readings to get the length 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.
