The percentage error in the measurement of mass and velocity are \(3 \%\) and \(4 \%\) respectively. The percentage error in the measurement of kinetic energy is

  1. A \(11 \%\)
  2. B 12\%
  3. C 14\%
  4. D 8\%
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(11 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{m}} \times 100=3 \%, \frac{\Delta \mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{v}} \times 100=4 \%\) Kinetic energy, \(k=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mu}^2\) \(\therefore\) Percentage error in kinetic energy,…
