Physics I Laboratory Faculty of Science, Ontario Tech University Report PhyI-01: Measurement and Evaluation of Physical Parameters Student’s name Devarsh Joshi CRN 45753 Date 20/09/2023 TA Signature_____________________ Experiment #1: Linear Dimensions and Volume Hypothesis What method do you think will be more precise for measuring the object’s volume (a) using calipers to measure linear dimensions and then calculate the volume or (b) just measuring the volume of water displaced by the object? Why do you think so? Measurements Shape of the regular-shaped object: Cuboid Table 1.1. Measurements, linear in cm and volume in ml ( cm 3 ) Object Height of cylinder or block, h, cm Diameter of cylinder, d , or width of block, w, cm regular-shaped object 4.89 4.88 4.90 4.89 4.89 1.585 1.580 1.590 1.590 1.590 irregular-shaped object N/A* N/A *Not Applicable Object Length of block only, l , cm Displaced volume, V D , ml (cm 3 ) regular-shaped object 3.18 3.19 3.18 3.17 3.18 25 26 25 25 26 irregular-shaped object N/A 27 26 27 26 27 Report PhyI-01: Measurement and Evaluation of Physical Parameters Method (b) is more precise to calculate the volume. I think so, because the absolute uncertainity for water-displaced method is 0.5 while for the caliper method is 0.9041.
