The sides of a small rectangular box are measured to be 1.80 ±0.01 cm long, 2.02± 0.02cm long, and 3.10 ± 0.01cm long. Calculate the box's volume and approximate uncertainty in cubic centimeters. Hint: Volume of a box = Length x Width x Height. Remember that when performing multiplication with uncertainties, you must change the absolute uncertainty to a percent uncertainty to begin and then convert back to an absolute uncertainty. Also, remember significant numbers for your uncertainty answer.
