Answer:-

To know the answer you should know the following term.

Precision:-

  • Precision tells us to what resolution a quantity can be measured.
  • Let me explain you through an example ------》If we measure certain thickness of two devices having Resolution 0.1 cm and 0.01 cm. Then the device giving 0.01 cm is said to be more precise.

  • Now, coming to your question
  • In the first experiment it measure 6.2 kg.and in the second one is 6.20 kg.

so, Now the second experiment is more precise than the first one.

Measurement difffers in having more precision in the second one than the first one.

Answer:

The two do differ

Explanation:

Saying that you got 6.2kg in measurement means that you do not know anything after 2

Saying that you got 6.20kg means that you know for certain that there is a zero after 2

The second one shows more accuracy
