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 rule sr hws(jyj :z3 a0m4v6o +wk2wthat the uncertainty is half the smallest 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 thj4(wj0w ok :6 hz2m +3sswyavre uncertainty.
