Explain what the accuracy of a measured value means.
Two solid cubes, A and B, are measured so that the density of the materials they are made from can be determined. Table 1.1 gives the measurements for cube A.
Show that the density calculated for the material of cube A is $8.7 \times 10^3\,\text{kg m}^{-3}$.
Calculate the percentage uncertainty in the density of the material of cube A.
The density of the material of cube B is given as $9.2 \times 10^3\,\text{kg m}^{-3} \pm 6\%$. State and explain whether cube A and cube B could be made from the same material.
