本题详细解析:
With a millimetre scale we can t 2 j9db/2x 2wgcuv2sufake each reading to ±0.5mm, following the rule that 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 l su/ j v9u2bfcx22w2dgength must be presented to the same number of decimal places as the uncertainty.
