A physical quantity $z$ depends on four observables $a,$ $b,$ $c$ and $d ,$ as $z =\frac{ a ^{2} b ^{\frac{2}{3}}}{\sqrt{ c } d ^{3}} .$ The percentage of error in the measurement of $a, b, c$ and $d$ are $2 \%, 1.5 \%, 4 \%$ and $2.5 \%$ respectively. The percentage of error in $z$ 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. . . . .
According to Joule's law of heating, heat produced $H = {I^2}\,Rt$, where I is current, $R$ is resistance and $t$ is time. If the errors in the measurement of $I, R$ and t are $3\%, 4\% $ and $6\% $ respectively then error in the measurement of $H$ is
Number of particles is given by $n = - D\frac{{{n_2} - {n_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}$ crossing a unit area perpendicular to X-axis in unit time, where ${n_1}$ and ${n_2}$ are number of particles per unit volume for the value of $x$ meant to ${x_2}$ and ${x_1}$. Find dimensions of $D$ called as diffusion constant
