In an experiment,the mass of an object is measured by applying a known force on it and then measuring its acceleration. If in the experiment,the measured values of applied force and the measured acceleration are $F = 10.0 \pm 0.2 \, N$ and $a = 1.00 \pm 0.01 \, m/s^2$,respectively,then the mass of the object is ............... $kg$.

  • A
    $10.0$
  • B
    $10.0 \pm 0.1$
  • C
    $10.0 \pm 0.3$
  • D
    $10.0 \pm 0.4$
