Two equal masses each `m` are hung from a balance whose scale pans differ in vertical height by `h`. The error in weighing is

A

`piGrhomh`

B

`1/3Grho mh`

C

`8/3 piGrhomh`

D

`4/3piGrhomh`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Error =`m(g_(2)-g_(1))=mg[(2h_(1))/R-(2h_(2))/R]`
