The length of a rod as measured in an experiment is 2.56 m, 2.51 m, 2.49 m, 2.58 m, 2.48 m and 2.55 m respectively. The average length is
Option B
Sum = 15.17; average = 15.17/6 = 2.528333... which rounded as a direct arithmetic mean gives 2.5283 m.

Sum = 15.17; average = 15.17/6 = 2.528333... which rounded as a direct arithmetic mean gives 2.5283 m.
Leading zeros are not significant; the digits 5,0,0,5 are significant, giving 4 significant figures.
Side 4.4 has two significant figures, so volume (4.4³ ≈ 85.184) should be reported to two significant figures as 85 cm³.
The number 2.00 has three significant figures due to the two trailing zeros after the decimal.
Both factors have 3 significant figures, so result should have 3 sig figs: 2.49×1.07 ≈ 2.6643 → 2.66 m².
3.14 has three significant figures, so n^2 rounded to three significant figures is 9.86.
In 20.000 all zeros are significant because the number has a decimal and trailing zeros indicate measured precision.
The OCR marks option A; using significant-figure rules, the product is rounded to three significant figures giving 7.15.
Air density ≈1.29 kg/m^3, so mass in 100 m^3 ≈129 kg ≈130 kg, making option C correct.
Increasing temperature generally reduces surface tension, which tends to decrease the contact angle for typical liquid–solid pairs.
