→‎Improving Precision

====Improving [[Precision]]====

: Use a larger and more massive cuboid to reduce the [[uncertainty]] of the [[Electronic Balance|electronic balance]] and the [[Measuring Cylinder|measuring cylinder]] so that repeat readings are likely to be the same given the [[resolution]] of the instruments.

: Ensure no [[water]] is spilled from the [[Measuring Cylinder|measuring cylinder]] so that all repeat readings are the same.

: Measure the 'dry' [[mass]] of the [[object]] to ensure repeat readings are not affected by [[water]] permeating the [[object]].
