A seed has principal dimensions \( 8.0 \), \( 4.0 \) and \( 2.0 \) mm. Its geometric mean diameter is

  • A.4.67 mm
  • B.3.17 mm
  • C.5.66 mm
  • D.4.00 mm

Answer: D

The geometric mean is \( (8 \times 4 \times 2)^{1/3} = 64^{1/3} = 4.00 \) mm. Note that the arithmetic mean of the same dimensions would be 4.67 mm, which is a different quantity altogether and should never be substituted.
