The experimental values are 8.95 ± 0.05 mm, 8.90 ± 0.05 mm, 8.85 ± 0.05 mm, 8.60 ± 0.05 mm, 8.90 ± 0.05 mm, and 8.90 ± 0.05 mm. Determine the mean and the uncertainty for this set of data. Use the built-in functions for mean and standard deviation on your personal calculator to help you perform these calculations. State the brand and model number of your calculator and give a brief description of what was necessary on your model calculator to utilize these tools
Explanation / Answer
(8.95+8.90+8.85+8.60+8.90+8.90)/6= 8.80(or) 8.90
