You have a set of calipers that can measure thicknesses of a few inches with an uncertainty of ± 0.005 inches. You measure the thickness of a deck of 52 cards and get 0.590 in: a. If you now calculate the thickness of 1 card, what is your answer, including its uncertainty?

Answer:

The thickness of 1 card is between 0.006in and 0.016in

Explanation:

Thickness of a deck of 52 cards = 0.590in

Thickness of 1 card = 0.590in/52 = 0.011in

Uncertainty = + or - 0.005in

Lower limit of thickness of 1 card = 0.011in - 0.005in = 0.006in

Upper limit of thickness of 1 card = 0.011in + 0.005in = 0.016in

Therefore, thickness of 1 card is between 0.006in and 0.016in
