The density of a cube is measured by measuring its mass and the length of its sides. If the maximum errors in the measurement of mass and length are `3% and 2%`, respectively, then find the maximum error in the measurement of the density of cube.

A

`9%`

B

`19%`

C

`10%`

D

`90%`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`d = (M)/(V) = M/(L^3) , (Deltad)/d xx 100 = ((DeltaM)/M + (3DeltaL)/L ) 100`
