The radius of a ball is (`5.4 +- 0.2`) cm. The percentage error in the volume of the ball is

A

`11%`

B

`4%`

C

`7%`

D

`9%`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Percentage error in the volume of the ball `= 3(Deltar)/(r) xx 100= 3 xx (0.2)/(5.4) xx 100= (200)/(18) = 11%`
