JEE Advanced 2016 Hard - Paragraph:
If the measurement errors in all the independent quantities are known, then it is possible to determine the error in any dependent quantity. This is done by the use of series expansion and truncating the expansion at the first power of the error. For example, consider the relation . If the errors in , respectively, then
The series expansion for , to first power in . The relative errors in independent variables are always added. So the error in will be
