The unit of percentage error is
Same as that of physical quantity
Different from that of physical quantity
Percentage error is unit less
Errors have got their own units which are different from that of physical quantity measured
The relative density of material of a body is found by weighing it first in air and then in water. If the weight in air is ($5.00 \pm 0.05$) Newton and weight in water is ($4.00 \pm 0.05$) Newton. Then the relative density along with the maximum permissible percentage error is
A physical quantity $y$ is represented by the formula $y=m^{2}\, r^{-4}\, g^{x}\,l^{-\frac{3}{2}}$. If the percentage error found in $y, m, r, l$ and $g$ are $18,1,0.5,4$ and $p$ respectively, then find the value of $x$ and $p$.
What is called as relative error ? Define fractional error.
The temperature of a metal coin is increased by $100^{\circ} C$ and its diameter increases by $0.15 \%$. Its area increases by nearly
A student in the laboratory measures thickness of a wire using screw gauge. The readings are $1.22\,mm , 1.23\,mm , 1.19\,mm$ and $1.20\,mm$. The percentage error is $\frac{ x }{121} \%$. The value of $x$ is ..............
