(a) A student has six similar metal spherical balls. To determine the mean mass of a ball, the student
measures the diameters of the balls.
The table shows the measurements.
Diameter / cm 0.565 0.562 0.555 0.561 0.562 0.556
The density of the metal is (8.9 ± 0.1) g cm–3.
(i) Show that the mean mass m of each of the balls is approximately 0.82 g.
[2]
(ii) Calculate the percentage uncertainty in m.
percentage uncertainty = ................................................................. % [2]
