PLEASE HELP! HOW DO YOU CALCULATE THIS ?? I COULDNT REACH THE ANSWER
A student wishes to determine the density ρ of lead. She measures the mass and diameter of a
small sphere of lead:
mass = (0.506 ± 0.005) g
diameter = (2.20 ± 0.02) mm.
What is the best estimate of the percentage uncertainty in her value of ρ ?
A 1.9% B 2.0% C 2.8% D 3.7%
