Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
The given quantity is .
The percentage error for a quantity can be given by the formula .
Relation of the relative errors will be,
\left(\dfrac{\DeltaP}{P}\right) = \left[\left(\dfrac{2\Deltaa}{a}\right) + \left(\dfrac{3\Deltab}{b}\right) + \left(\dfrac{\Deltac}{c}\right) + \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{\Deltad}{d}\right)\right]\left(\dfrac{\DeltaP}{P}\right) \times 100 = \left(2 \times 1\right) + \left(3 \times 2\right) + 3 + \left(\dfrac{1}{2} \times 4\right) = 13 %.
