If the radius of a sphere is $(5.3 \pm 0.1) \; cm$,then the percentage error in its volume will be:

  • A
    $3 + 6.01 \times \frac{100}{5.3}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3} \times 0.01 \times \frac{100}{5.3}$
  • C
    $\left( \frac{3 \times 0.1}{5.3} \right) \times 100$
  • D
    $\frac{0.1}{5.3} \times 100$

$A$ physical quantity $Q$ is found to depend on quantities $a, b, c$ by the relation $Q = \frac{a^4 b^3}{c^2}$. The percentage errors in $a, b,$ and $c$ are $3 \%, 4 \%,$ and $5 \%$ respectively. Then,the percentage error in $Q$ is: (in $\%$)

$A$ student determined Young's Modulus of elasticity using the formula $Y = \frac{M g L^{3}}{4 b d^{3} \delta}$. The value of $g$ is taken to be $9.8 \, m/s^2$, without any significant error. His observations are as follows:
Physical QuantityLeast count and Observed value
Mass $(M)$$1 \, g$ and $2 \, kg$
Length of bar $(L)$$1 \, mm$ and $1 \, m$
Breadth of bar $(b)$$0.1 \, mm$ and $4 \, cm$
Thickness of bar $(d)$$0.01 \, mm$ and $0.4 \, cm$
Depression $(\delta)$$0.01 \, mm$ and $5 \, mm$

Then the fractional error in the measurement of $Y$ is:
