A metal wire has mass $(0.4 \pm 0.002)\,g$, radius $(0.3 \pm 0.001)\,mm$ and length $(5 \pm 0.02) \,cm$. The maximum possible percentage error in the measurement of density will nearly be $.......\%$
$1.4$
$1.2$
$1.3$
$1.6$
A physical quantity is given by $X = {M^a}{L^b}{T^c}$. The percentage error in measurement of $M,L$ and $T$ are $\alpha ,\beta $ and $\gamma $ respectively. Then maximum percentage error in the quantity X is
The density of a cube is measured by measuring its mass and length of its sides. If the maximum error in the measurement of mass and length are $4\%$ and $3\%$ respectively, the maximum error in the measurement of density will be ........ $\%$
The radius of a sphere is measured to be $(7.50 \pm 0.85) \,cm .$ Suppose the percentage error in its volume is $x$. The value of $x$, to the nearest integer is .....$\%$
The relative error in the determination of the surface area of a sphere is $\alpha $. Then the relative error in the determination of its volume is
The percentage error in measurement of a physical quantity $m$ given by $m = \pi \tan \theta $ is minimum when $\theta $ $=$ .......... $^o$ (Assume that error in $\theta $ remain constant)
