Experiment one: Measurements and Uncertainties (5 Points)

Q.1) Given the mass of the cylinder 4 gm. The length of a cylinder was measured by the vernier caliper, The
diameter of it was measured by the micrometer. Read the vernier caliper and the micrometer shown in figure
below and then calculate the density of the cylindrical rod in gm/cm3.

a. The reading of the Vernier caliper in mm is ---------------

b. The reading of the micrometer is ---------------------------
c. The density in gm/cm3 is: 𝜌 = -------------------------------------------

Experiment two: Vectors (5 Points)

Q.2) In the force table experiment, pulley (1) was placed at 30o and added a weight of 2.2 N. Pulley (2) was
placed at 140o and added a weight of 1. 3 N. The resultant weight was 1.9 N.

a. If the equilibrium force is found at angle of 245o, then the resultant force will be at angle of
φ = ---------------------------------------

b. Determine the resultant and angle using the calculation method
