The maximum error in the measurement of mass and length is \(4 \%\) and \(3 \%\) respectively. The error in the measurement of density of a cube will be

  1. A \(9 \%\)
  2. B \(15 \%\)
  3. C \(13 \%\)
  4. D \(6 \%\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(13 \%\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \rho = \frac{M}{V} = \frac{M}{L^3} \) \( \frac{\Delta \rho}{\rho} \times 100\% = \left( \frac{\Delta M}{M} + 3 \frac{\Delta L}{L} \right) \times 100\% \)
