The length $l$, breadth b and thickness t of a block of wood were measured with the help of a measuring scale. The results with permissible errors are $l=15.12 \pm 0.01\; cm , t =5.28 \pm 0.01 \;cm$ $b =10.15 \pm 0.01\; cm$. The percentage error in volume upto proper significant figures is
$0.28$
$0.36$
$0.48$
$0.64$
A physical quantity $P$ is related to four observables $a, b, c$ and $d$ as follows: $P=\frac{a^{2} b^{2}}{(\sqrt{c} d)}$ The percentage errors of measurement in $a, b, c$ and $d$ are $1 \%, 3 \%, 4 \%$ and $2 \%$ respectively. What is the percentage error in the quantity $P$ ? If the value of $P$ calculated using the above relation turns out to be $3.763,$ to what value should you round off the result?
In an experiment, mass of an object is measured by applying a known force on it, and then measuring its acceleration. If in the experiment, the measured values of applied force and the measured acceleration are $F=10.0 \pm 0.2 \,N$ and $a=1.00 \pm 0.01 \,m / s ^2$, respectively. Then, the mass of the object is ............... $kg$
A set of defective observation of weights is used by a student to find the mass of an object using a physical balance. A large number of readings will reduce
What is error in measurement, done by any instrument ?
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 .....$\%$
