The density of a material in the shape of a cube is determined by measuring three sides of the cube and its mass. If the relative errors in measuring the mass and length are respectively $1.5\%$ and $1\%$, the maximum error in determining the density is ........ $\%$
$3.5$
$4.5$
$6$
$2.5$
A student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly $2 \mathrm{~m}$ long, by Searle's method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be $0.8 \mathrm{~mm}$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.05 \mathrm{~mm}$ at a load of exactly $1.0 \mathrm{~kg}$. The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be $0.4 \mathrm{~mm}$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01 \mathrm{~mm}$. Take $g=9.8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ (exact). The Young's modulus obtained from the reading is
The length of a cylinder is measured with a metre rod having least count $0.1 \;cm$. Its diameter is measured with vernier calipers having least count $0.01\; cm$. If the length and diameter of the cylinder are $5.0\; cm$ and $2.00\; cm$, respectively, then the percentage error in the calculated value of volume will be
The maximum percentage errors in the measurement of mass (M), radius (R) and angular velocity $(\omega)$ of a ring are $2 \%, 1 \%$ and $1 \%$ respectively, then find the maximum percenta? error in the measurement of its moment of inertia $\left(I=\frac{1}{2} M R^{2}\right)$ about its geometric axis.
A body travels uniformly a distance of $ (13.8 \pm 0.2) m$ in a time $(4.0 \pm 0.3)\, s$. The velocity of the body within error limits is
According to Joule's law of heating, heat produced $H = {I^2}\,Rt$, where I is current, $R$ is resistance and $t$ is time. If the errors in the measurement of $I, R$ and t are $3\%, 4\% $ and $6\% $ respectively then error in the measurement of $H$ is
