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)
$45$
$90$
$60$
$30$
Error in volume of a sphere is $6\%$. Error in its radius will be .......... $\%$
We can reduce random errors by
While measuring the acceleration due to gravity by a simple pendulum, a student makes a positive error of $1\%$ in the length of the pendulum and a negative error of $3\%$ in the value of time period. His percentage error in the measurement of $g$ by the relation $g = 4{\pi ^2}\left( {l/{T^2}} \right)$ will be ........ $\%$
A force $F$ is applied on a square area of side $L$. If the percentage error in the measurement of $L$ is $2 \%$ and that in $F$ is $4 \%$, what is the maximum percentage error in pressure is .......... $\%$
The amount of heat produced in an electric circuit depends upon the current $(I),$ resistance $(R)$ and time $(t).$ If the error made in the measurements of the above quantities are $2\%, 1\%$ and $1\%$ respectively then the maximum possible error in the total heat produced will be ........... $\%$
