19. The dimensions of a slab were found to be10 cm + 0.1 cm, 8 cm + 0.1 cm, 5 cm +0.1 cm. CalculateCalculate its volume and thepercentage error in it |

Answer» VOLUME of a slab = l b h in MEASUREMENT error is associated then the volume can be expressed in V = V + ∆V = ( 10 x 8 x 5) [ 1 + (0.1/10 +0.1/8 + 0.1/5)] = 400 [ 1 + ( 1/100 + 1/80 +1/50)] percentage error, ∆V/V x 100 = 0.1/10 x 100 + 0.1/8 x 100 + 0.1/5 x 100 = 1 + 5/4 + 2 = 5/4 + 3 = 17/4 % |
