The pressure on a square plate is measured by measuring the force on the plate and the length of one side of the plate. The errors in the measurement of force and length are 3% and 2% respectively. The maximum error in the value of the pressure would beA. `5%`B. `6%`C. `7%`D. `8%` |

Answer» Correct Answer - c Pressure `=("Force")/("Area")orP=(F)/(A)=(F)/(L^(2))` `therefore` The maximum possible percentage error will be `((deltaP)/(P))_(max)xx100=((deltaF)/(F))xx100+2((deltaL)/(L))xx100` `=3%+(2xx2)%=7%` |
