The heat generated in a circuit is given by `Q = I^(2) Rt` , where `I` is current , `R` is resistance , and `t` is time . If the percentage errors in measuring `I , R , and t are 2% , 1% , and 1%` , respectively , then the maximum error in measuring heat will be

A

`2% `

B

`3 %`

C

`4 % `

D

`6 %`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`Q = I^(2) Rt`
Required error is
`2xx 2% +1% + 1 % = 6%`
