Which of the following measurement is most precise?

A

5.00 mm

B

5.00 cm

C

5.00 m

D

5.00 km

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
All given measurements are correct upto two decimal places. As here 5.00 mm has the smallest unit and the error in 5.00 mm is least (commonly taken as 0.01 mm if not specified), hence, 5.00 mm is most precise.
Note : In solving these type of quentions, we should be careful about units although their magnitude is same.
