Q.

A metal wire has mass (0.4±0.002) g, radius (0.3±0.001) mm and length (5±0.02) cm. The maximum possible percentage error in the measurement of density will nearly be

A

1.3%

 

B

1.6%

 

C

1.4%

 

D

1.2%

 


A.

b) Density=MassVolume

ρ=MV=Mπr2L

ρρ=(MM+2rr+LL)×100%

=(0.0020.4+2×0.0010.3+0.025)×100%

=(0.005+0.007+0.004)×100%

=1.6%
