The height of a cylinder is equal to the...

The height of a cylinder is equal to the radius. If an error of `alpha%` is made in the height, then percentage error in its volume is `alpha%` (b) 2`alpha%` (c) 3`alpha%` (d) none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

height of cyliner is h & radius is r
so,`h=r`
`(del h)/h xx 100 = a`
`(dh)/h xx 100 = a`
`dh = (ah)/100`
volume of cylinder= `v= pi r^2 h= pi h^2 h = pi h^3`
`v = pi h^3`
diff wrt h
