Question

in an experiment, to determine the volume of an object, mass and density are recorded as
m = (5 + 0.15) kg, p = (5 + 0.2) kg m-respectively. Calculate percentage error in
the measurement of volume.​

Answer 1

so by this method the percentage error in v is 14 per cent. I hope this will help u

Answer 2

Answer:

The percentage error in  the measurement of volume is 7%.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = (5+0.15) kg

Density = (5+0.2) kg/m^3

We need to calculate the  percentage error in  the measurement of volume.

Using formula of volume

$\dfrac{\Delta V}{V}\times100=\dfrac{\Delta M}{M}\times100}+\dfrac{\Delta \rho}{\rho}\times100$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{\Delta V}{V}\times100=\dfrac{0.15}{5}\times100+\dfrac{0.2}{5}\times100$

$\dfrac{\Delta V}{V}\times100=7\%$

Hence, The percentage error in  the measurement of volume is 7%.
