Question 12 • FL-2003010-M/J Physical Science

Which circumstances could be sources of error within the experiment? Check all that apply.not fully submerging the object when doing the fluid displacement procedurewater that is left behind in the collection container when it is transferred for measurementwater that soaks into the materials of the balls, affecting the mass in repeated trialsthe time of day when the measurements are recordedwater in the bucket, approximated to the closest 10 mL due to surface tension at the top of the bucketthe air pressure in the room and its affect on the scales that measure the mass of each object
