If the maximum and minimum temperatures at a place on a day are measured as \(44^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 0.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 0.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) respectively, then the temperature difference is

  1. A \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 1^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  2. B \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 0.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  3. C \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 0.25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
  4. D \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 1.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \pm 1^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Delta T = T_{max} - T_{min} = 44^{\circ} \mathrm{C} - 22^{\circ} \mathrm{C} = 22^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) \(\delta(\Delta T) = \delta T_{max} + \delta T_{min} = 0.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C} + 0.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C} = 1^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)…
