all subject to error which leads to the uncertainty of the result. Errors may come from systematic errors (deterministic error) or random error (not deterministic error). In this experiment‚ the group measured the diameter of sphere using different kinds of measuring devices (foot rule‚ vernier caliper‚ and micrometer caliper) in order to achieve accuracy in the scientific measurements. After experimenting‚ it was revealed that the micrometer caliper has the lowest percentage of error. 1. Introduction
