Question

There's an apocalypse and you are sealed inside a rectangular room with dimensions (6.0 ± 0.1
m) x (8.0 ± 0.1 m) x (3.0 ± 0.1 m).
1. What is the air volume in the room? What is the uncertainty?
2. How many hours before you run out of air? (Look up how much air you need per hour and/
or how concentrated the oxygen must be for you to be able to breath.) What is the
uncertainty?
