The percentage error in measurement of a cube's side is 2%. Maximum percentage error in its volume is:
A. 8%
B. 6%
C. 2%
D. 4%
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Volume V = a³. For error propagation: % error in V = 3 × % error in a. Given 2% error in side, volume error = 3×2% = 6%. Power rule: if Q = xⁿ, %ΔQ = |n|×%Δx. Memory tip: Volume depends on cube of length ⇒ errors triple. Common in experimental error analysis questions.
Explanation:
Work = force × displacement in direction of force. Displacement zero, so work zero. Physiology work is done internally, but physics work zero.
