The unit of percentage error is
The mass and volume of a body are found to be $(5.00 ± 0.05)\,kg$ and $(1.00 ± 0.05)\,m^3$ respectively. Then the maximum possible percentage error in its density is .......... $\%$
Time intervals measured by a clock give the following readings :
$1.25 \;s , 1.24\; s , 1.27\; s , 1.21 \;s$ and $1.28\; s$
What is the percentage relative error of the observations?
A physical quantity $p$ is described by the relation $p\, = a^{1/2}\, b^2\, c^3\, d^{-4}$
If the relative errors in the measurement of $a, b, c$ and $d$ respectively, are $2\% , 1\%, 3\%$ and $5\%$, then the relative error in $P$ will be ........... $\%$
The distance $s$ travelled by a particle in time $t$ is $s=u t-\frac{1}{2} \,g t^{2}$. The initial velocity of the particle was measured to be $u=1.11 \pm 0.01 \,m / s$ and the time interval of the experiment was $t=1.01 \pm 0.1 \,s$. The acceleration was taken to be $g=9.8 \pm 0.1 \,m / s ^{2}$. With these measurements, the student estimates the total distance travelled. How should the student report the result?
