What is error in measurement ? What is mistake in measurement ?
A physical quantity $X$ is given by $X = \frac{{2{k^3}{l^2}}}{{m\sqrt n }}$ The percentage error in the measurements of $k,\,l,\, m$ and $n$ are $1\%, 2\%, 3\%$ and $4\%$ respectively. The value of $X$ is uncertain by ………. $\%$
A physical quantity $X$ is related to four measurable quantities $a,\, b,\, c$ and $d$ as follows $X = a^2b^3c^{\frac {5}{2}}d^{-2}$. The percentange error in the measurement of $a,\, b,\, c$ and $d$ are $1\,\%$, $2\,\%$, $3\,\%$ and $4\,\%$ respectively. What is the percentage error in quantity $X$ ? If the value of $X$ calculated on the basis of the above relation is $2.763$, to what value should you round off the result.
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 $…….\%$
The resistance $R=V / I$ where $V=(100 \pm 5)\;V$ and $I=(10 \pm 0.2) \;A$. Find the percentage error in $R .$
