You want to calculate the volume of air that occupies a standard volleyball. You measure the diameter of the balloon with a ruler graduated to the millimeter. The measurement is rather difficult to take, but you trust that the correct measurement is somewhere between 20.8 cm and 20.9 cm. Calculate the volume of air inside the balloon as well as the uncertainty of this value and give the answer in cm^3.
