The pressure on a square plate is measured by measuring the force on the plate and the length of the sides of the plate. If the maximum error in the measurement of force and length are respectively $4\%$ and $2\%$, The maximum error in the measurement of pressure is ....... $\%$
The dimensions of a cone are measured using a scale with a least count of $2 mm$. The diameter of the base and the height are both measured to be $20.0 cm$. The maximum percentage error in the determination of the volume is. . . . .
Measure of two quantities along with the precision of respective measuring instrument $A = 2.5\,m{s^{ - 1}} \pm 0.5\,m{s^{ - 1}}$, $B = 0.10\,s \pm 0.01\,s$ The value of $AB$ will be
