A student measuring the mass of a standard brass mass labeled "50.0 g." When she measures the mass on a triple-beam balance, the balance reads 50.9 g, 51.0 g, 50.8 g, and 50.9 in four successive measurements. The equipment and the brass mass have recently been calibrated by a professional.
What is the most likely reason that her measurements don't agree with the label?
A student plans to calculate the density of a solid brass square. When she measures the mass on a triple-beam balance, she gets 32.8 g, 32.0 g, 31.5 g, and 33.1 g in four successive measurements. The label states that the mass is 33.4 g. Since her mass measurements are different from the label, how will this affect her density calculation?
A student measures the volume of a copper cylinder by displacing water in a graduated cylinder. In successive measurements, the student gets results of 32.2 mL, 32.4 mL, 31.8 mL, and 31.9 mL. What is the best way to record the resulting volume of the cylinder?
