A small error in the measurement of the quantity having the highest power (in a given forumla) will contribute maximum percentage error in the value of the physcial quantity to whom it is related. Explain why.

What is meant by absolute error of the value of a physical quantity ? How is it related to relative error ?

Write type or error in measurement of physical quantity and explain.

The heat dissipated in a resistance can be obtained by the measurement of resistance, current and time. If the maximum percentage error in the measurement of these quantities are 1%,2% and 1% respectively. The maximum percentage error in the determination of the dissipated heat is -
