An experiment measures quantities $a, b$ and $c$, and quantity $X$ is calculated from $X=a b^{2} / c^{3}$. If the percentage error in $a$, $b$ and $c$ are $\pm 1 \%, \pm 3 \%$ and $\pm 2 \%$, respectively, then the percentage error in $X$ will be

A physical quantity $Q$ is found to depend on quantities $a, b, c$ by the relation $Q=\frac{a^4 b^3}{c^2}$. The percentage error in $a$, $b$ and $c$ are $3 \%, 4 \%$ and $5 \%$ respectively. Then, the percentage error in $\mathrm{Q}$ is :
A screwgauage has pitch $1.5\; mm$ and there is no zero error. Linear scale has marking at $MSD = 1\; mm$ and there are $100$ equal division of circular scale. When diameter of a sphere is measured with instrument, main scale is having $2\; mm$ mark visible on linear scale, but $3\; mm$ mark is not visible, $76^{th}$ division of circuler scale is in line with linear scale. .......... $mm$ is the diameter of sphere.
The acceleration due to gravity is measured on the surface of earth by using a simple pendulum. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are relative errors in the measurement of length and time period respectively, then percentage error in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is ................
A physical quantity $P$ is given by $P= \frac{{{A^3}{B^{\frac{1}{2}}}}}{{{C^{ - 4}}{D^{\frac{3}{2}}}}}$. The quantity which brings in the maximum percentage error in $P$ is
