A physical quantity Pis described by the relationP = a^1/2 b^2 c^3 d^4If the relative errors in the measurement of a, b, c and d, respectively, are 2%, 1%,3% and 5%, then the relative error in P will be(A) 8%(B) 32%(C) 12%(D) 25% About the author Everleigh
Answer: 32℅ Explanation: Relative error =1/2 ×Δa/a +2×Δb/b+3×Δc/c +4 ×Δd/d =1/2 x 2℅ + 2 x 1℅ + 3× 3℅ +4 × 5℅ = 1/100 + 2/100+9/100+20/100 = 32℅ Reply
Answer:
32℅
Explanation:
Relative error =1/2 ×Δa/a +2×Δb/b+3×Δc/c +4 ×Δd/d
=1/2 x 2℅ + 2 x 1℅ + 3× 3℅ +4 × 5℅
= 1/100 + 2/100+9/100+20/100
= 32℅
