- A standard unit must have what characteristics?arrow_forwardThe sides of a small rectangular box are measured to be 1.800.01,2.050.02, and 3.10.1 cm long. Calculate its volume and uncertainty in cubic centimeters.arrow_forwardThe following lengths are given in meters. Use metric prefixes to rewrite them so the numerical value is bigger than one but less than 1000. For example, 7.9102m could be written either as 7.9cm or 79mm .
