In an experiment , the following observations were recorded:
`L = 2.820 m , M = 3.00 kg , l = 0.087 cm , diameter , D = 0.041 cm`. Taking ` g = 9.81 m s^(-2)` and using the formula , `Y = ( 4MgL)/( pi D^(2) l)` , find the maximum permissible error in `Y`.

A

`7.96%`

B

`4.56%`

C

`6.50%`

D

`8.42%`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`Y=(4MgL)/(piD^2l)` so maximum permissible error in Y
`(triangleY)/(Y)xx100=((triangleM)/(M)+(triangleg)/(g)+(triangleL)/(L)+(2triangleD)/(D)+(trianglel)/(l))xx100`
`=((1)/(300)+(1)/(981)+(1)/(2820)+2xx(1)/(41)+(1)/(87))xx100`
`=0.065xx100=6.5%`
