The International Avogadro Coordination project created the world's most perfect sphere using Silicon in its crystalline form. The diameter of the sphere is $9.4 \,cm$ with an uncertainty of $0.2 \,nm$. The atoms in the crystals are packed in cubes of side $a$. The side is measured with a relative error of $2 \times 10^{-9}$, and each cube has $8$ atoms in it. Then, the relative error in the mass of the sphere is closest to (assume molar mass of Silicon and Avogadro's number to be known precisely)

Two resistors of resistances $R_{1}=100 \pm 3$ $ohm$ and $R_{2}=200 \pm 4$ $ohm$ are connected $(a)$ in series, $(b)$ in parallel. Find the equivalent resistance of the $(a)$ series combination, $(b)$ parallel combination.
