Also as for mass of ruler, we could do a preliminary estimation
Ruler would be 100cm long, perhaps 4cm wide and prolly 0.5cm thick
This would give vol. of 200cm3
Density of wood tends to be ~0.5 (depending on type, anything between 0.3 to 1.2, but the ones more than 0.7 are less common)
So the mass = dxv=0.5*200=100g, sounds about right P:
I wrote 250g cause I'm stupid like that.

I wrote 50g...lol I should have written 100g....but I think 50 would be accepted...

What did u write for the 4 errors on the last page?
I remember 2....like bubbles escape in the testube in water one and water contains bubbles in the fill with water one....
Im an idiot :( I wrote balancing would be a problem like getting the rule to be 100% horizontal would be a problem as we would think it is but it isnt coz when u look at it it seems fine.....so it can lead to inaccurate readings....I hope the ms is generous and allows that answer :)


I wrote to take care while taking reading from rule, think its correct? :/

I dont get it what do u mean by antoher one ontop of the cylinder?
i mean like place another rule horizontally above the cyinder as the cylinder was covering the rule so another rule was needed ! which we place vertically above ! from 0 mark till the 90 (i guess in the question)
i made this myself hope it is correct
what do u think?

Hmm...I put place a mark on the side of the rule, then mark the center of the cylinder and then put the center over the mark....I think this would be accepted :)

I wrote measure the diameter of the cylinder, divide by two to find radius 'r' then place the cylinder such that the opposite edges are on 90+r and 90-r respectively.
e.g. if cylinder has diameter 4cm, radius = 2cm and edges are on 92 and 88 so center is on 90 ;)
