A piece of ice is in the form of a cu...

A piece of ice is in the form of a cube melts so that the percentage error in the edge of cube is `a` , then find the percentage error in its volume.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `x` be the side and `V` be the volume of the cube.
`V=x^{3}`
We have
`frac{Delta x}{x} times 100=a `
`therefore frac{d V}{d x}=3 x^{2} `
