A public park, in the form of a square, has an area of $(100 \pm 0.2) m ^2$. The side of park is ......... $m$

A

$(10 \pm 0.01)$

B

$(10 \pm 0.1)$

C

$(10 \pm 0.02)$

D

$(10 \pm 0.2)$

Solution

(a)

$A=(100 \pm 0.2) \,m^2$

$100=l^2 \Rightarrow l=10 \,m$

$\frac{\Delta A}{A}=\frac{2 \Delta l}{I}$

$\frac{0.2}{100}=2 \times \frac{\Delta l}{10}$

$\Rightarrow \Delta=0.01 \,m$

So, length $=(10 \pm 0.01) \,m$
