Force and area are measured as `20N` and `5m^(2)` with errors `0.05N` and `0.0125m^(2)`. The maximum error in pressure is (`SI` unit)

A

`4 +- 0.625`

B

`4 +- 0.5`

C

`4 +- 0.125`

D

`4 +- 0.02`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`P = (F)/(A) implies (Delta P)/(P) = (Delta F)/(F) + (Delta A)/(A) implies DeltaP = P ((Delta F)/(F) + (Delta A)/(A))`
