An engineer calculates the diameter of an object as 123.456 cm with an estimated uncertainty of 0.0454 cm. The correct way to report this result in the proper format would be: a) (124. ± 0.0454) cm b) (1.23 ± 0.05) m c) (1.23446 ± 0.0454) m d) (123.46 ± 0.05) cm e) (1.23446 ± 0.000454) m f) 123.45 cm ± 0.50 mm

00:02 Hello, so definitely parallax is going to affect the precision of measurement, okay? so it's going to cause the measurement to be different from the real answer, all right? so for example, if a person viewing, or if you're looking at a car's speedometer from the driver's seat, you're going to get an accurate reading because you have a direct.
00:31 You know line of sight okay but if you're on a passenger seat because you are at an angle you're gonna read a wrong value another example could be so let's take a look at this so you got a like a ruler then you got some markings on it all right let's say this is straight and so if you want to measure the length of a road for example i'm just going to put the rod on it i said maybe up to this point right so we have a rod here you want to take the measurement okay so let's do i can draw some human eye and someone is here someone is looking that way someone looking this way right maybe you got someone looking this way right let's look at the line of sight so we have this we got that we got that and then we so if you want to measure the length of the road using this scale, then the three viewers are going to, you know, measure this length.
02:44 All right.
02:44 So we got three viewers.
02:45 One, two, three.
02:48 Right.
02:51 Of course, you can see that if you are three is going to get an accurate reading because he's directly above, directly above it...
