A physical quantity Q=(a^(2)b^(3)c^(5/2))/(x^(2)).If the percentage errors in the measurement of 'a','b','c' and x are 1%,2%,3%,4% reperctively, What is the percentage error in the measurement of Q ?

Answer»

`24%`
`12%`
`6%`
`8%`

Solution :Here `Q=(a^(2)b^(3)c^(5//2))/(x^(2))`
`:.(dQ)/(Q)=(2da)/(a)+(3db)/(b)+(5)/(2)(DC)/(c )+2(dx)/(x)`
or `(dQ)/(Q)xx100=[2(da)/(a)+3(db)/(b)+(5)/(2)(dc)/(c )+2(dx)/(x)]xx100`
or percentage errors `Q` is
`=[2xx1+3xx2+(5)/(2)xx3+2xx4]`
`=23.5%~~24%`
`:.(a)` is correct.
