The error in the measurement of length and mass is \(3 \%\) and \(4 \%\) respectively. The error in the measurement of density will be
- A \(6 \%\)
- B \(13 \%\)
- C \(9 \%\)
- D \(15 \%\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(13 \%\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho} \% = \frac{\Delta m}{m} \% + 3 \frac{\Delta L}{L} \% \) \( \frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho} \% = 4 \% + 3 \times 3 \% \)
