The measured mass and volume of a body are $23.42 \mathrm{~g}$ and $4.9 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$ respectively with possible error $0.01 \mathrm{~g}$ and $0.1 \mathrm{~cm}^{3} .$ The maximum error in density is nearly (a) $0.2 \%$ (b) $2 \%$ (c) $5 \%$ (d) $10 \%$
Units and Measurements
Round 1
The relative density of material of a body is found by weighing it first in air and then in water. If the weight in air is $(5.00 \pm 0.05)$ newton and weight in water is $(4.00 \pm 0.05)$ newton, then the relative density along with the maximum permissible percentage error is (a) $5.0 \pm 11 \%$. (b) $5.0 \pm 1 \%$ (c) $5.0 \pm 6 \%$. (d) $1.25 \pm 5 \%$
