were to determine error in measurements and the derived quantities‚ volume and density. The diameter was determined using a dial caliper and the mass‚ a triple beam balance. The results of the error for diameter were not as expected while the results of the volume and density were deviated greatly from expectations; only the weight had a small error. Experimental Instruments: 1. Steel ball 2. Dial caliper (Mano Stat Corp.) 3. Triple beam balance (OHAUS) Procedure: 1. The steel ball

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

Math Practice Lab Pre-Lab Questions: 1. The rules concerning handling significant figures are as follows: When dividing/multiplying The answer has no more significant digits than the number with the fewest significant digits (the least precise figure). Round off after calculations have been performed. When adding/subtracting Answer has no more places than the addend‚ minuend‚ or subtrahend with the fewest number of decimal places. Significant figures are irrelevant when adding/subtracting
