The internal and external diameters of a hollow cylinder are measured with the help of vernier callipers. Their values are 4.23 ± 0.01 cm and 3.87 ± 0.01 cm respectively. The thickness of the wall of the cylinder is

TestHub · Accepted Answer

t = D 1 − D 2 2 = 4 .23 − 3 .87 2 = 0 . 18 cm Δ t = Δ D 1 + Δ D 2 = 0 .01 + 0 .01 = 0.02 cm ⇒ t = ( 0 .18 ± 0 .02 ) cm
