उत्तर
The error in the measurement of the sides of a rectangle is 1%. The error in the measurement of its area is 2%.
Explanation:
A = l × b
∴ `(triangle"A")/"A" = (trianglel)/l + (triangle "b")/"b"` = 1% + 1% = 2

The distance travelled by an object in time (100 ± 1)s is (5.2 ± 0.1) m. What are the speed and its maximum relative error?
In a workshop, a worker measures the length of a steel plate with Vernier calipers having a least count 0.01 cm. Four such measurements of the length yielded the following values: 3.11 cm, 3.13 cm, 3.14 cm, 3.14 cm. Find the mean length, the mean absolute error, and the percentage error in the measured value of the length.
Find the percentage error in kinetic energy of a body having mass 60.0 ± 0.3 g moving with a velocity of 25.0 ± 0.1 cm/s.
In an experiment, the percentage of error occurred in the measurement of physical quantities A, B, C and D are 1%, 2%, 3% and 4% respectively. Then the maximum percentage of error in the measurement X, where X = `(A^2B^(1/2))/(C^(1/3)D^3)`, will be:
The relative density of a metal may be found by hanging a block of the metal from a spring balance and nothing that in air, the balance reads (5 .00 ± 0.05)N while in water, it reads (4.00 ± 0.05)N. The relative density would be quoted as ______.
