Two intervals of time are measured as \(\Delta t_1=(2.00 \pm 0.02) \mathrm{s}\) and \(\Delta t_2=(4.00 \pm 0.02) \mathrm{s}\). The value of \(\sqrt{\left(\Delta t_1\right)\left(\Delta t_2\right)}\) with correct significant figures and error is

  1. A \((2.828 \pm 0.01) \mathrm{s}\)
  2. B \((2.83 \pm 0.01) \mathrm{s}\)
  3. C \((2.828 \pm 0.0075) \mathrm{s}\)
  4. D \((2.83 \pm 0.0075) \mathrm{s}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \((2.83 \pm 0.01) \mathrm{s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Here, \(\Delta t_1=(2.00 \pm 0.02) \mathrm{s}\) and \(\Delta t_2=(4.00 \pm 0.02) \mathrm{s}\) Given, \(T=\sqrt{\left(\Delta t_1\right)\left(\Delta t_2\right)}=\sqrt{(2.00)(4.00)}=2.828427 \mathrm{~s}\) Now, according to the relative error of product…
