If the mass of the object is measured as m = (7 0.14) kg and the density is measured as = (5 0.25) kg/m ^3 respectively. The percentage error in the measurement of volume is
Options
- A3 %
- B5 %
- C7 %
- D9 %
Correct answer
C. 7 %
Step-by-step solution
Volume is given by the relation V = m The maximum percentage error in volume is V V 100 = ( m m + ) 100 Substituting the given values: V V 100 = ( 0.14 7 + 0.25 5 ) 100 V V 100 = (0.02 + 0.05) 100 V V 100 = 0.07 100 = 7 % Answer: 7 %
