  • A. 3.5%
  • B. 7%
  • C. 3%

Solution

### Related Formula By propagation of maximum relative error in division: R = fracVI implies fracDelta RR = fracDelta VV + fracDelta II Percentage error in R is given by: \% text error in R = left( fracDelta VV + fracDelta II right) times 100 ### Core Logic Given values: V = 200 mathrm~V, quad Delta V = 5 mathrm~V I = 20 mathrm~A, quad Delta I = 0.2 mathrm~A ### Step 1: Evaluate Relative Error fracDelta RR = frac5200 + frac0.220 fracDelta RR = frac5200 + frac2200 fracDelta RR = frac7200 ### Step 2: Calculate Percentage Error \% text error in R = fracDelta RR times 100 = frac7200 times 100 = 3.5\% Thus, the percentage error is 3.5\%. ### Pattern Recognition Whenever independent physical quantities are multiplied or divided, their fractional/relative errors always add up.

  • D. -1 / 3

Solution

### Related Formula [m] = [M]^1 [L]^0 [T]^0 [c] = [L T^-1] [G] = [M^-1 L^3 T^-2] [h] = [M L^2 T^-1] ### Core Logic By applying the principle of dimensional homogeneity, the dimensions on both sides of the equation must be identical. [M]^1 [L]^0 [T]^0 = [L T^-1]^p [M^-1 L^3 T^-2]^-1/2 [M L^2 T^-1]^1/2 ### Step 1: Substitute Dimensions [M] = L^p T^-p cdot M^1/2 L^-3/2 T^1 cdot M^1/2 L^1 T^-1/2 ### Step 2: Collect Powers of L Equating the powers of [L] on both sides: 0 = p - frac32 + 1 0 = p - frac12 p = frac12 ### Pattern Recognition The expression m propto sqrthc/G is a known fundamental relation representing the Planck mass.

  • C. 6
  • D. 5

Solution

### Related Formula T = 2pi sqrtfracellg implies g = frac4pi^2 ellT^2 ### Core Logic By taking logarithms and differentiating to find relative error (accuracy): fracDelta gg = fracDelta ellell + 2fracDelta TT ### Step 1: Extrapolating Errors Given values: ell = 20 text cm = 200 text mm Delta ell = 2 text mm T_texttotal = 40 text s for 50 oscillations Delta T_texttotal = 1 text s Note: The relative error in time period T is equal to the relative error in total time t: fracDelta TT = fracDelta tt. ### Step 2: Substitution fracDelta gg = frac0.2 text cm20 text cm + 2 left(frac1 text s40 text sright) fracDelta gg = frac2200 + frac240 fracDelta gg = frac1100 + frac5100 = frac6100 ### Step 3: Percentage Conversion Percentage change = fracDelta gg times 100\% = frac6100 times 100\% = 6\%. Thus, N = 6. ### Pattern Recognition For pendulum gravity error, always use \%g = \%ell + 2(\%T). Remember that measuring 50 oscillations reduces absolute error on a single swing, but the relative error Delta t / t remains unchanged whether you use total time or single period. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: Units and Measurements Class 11 Physics: Oscillations
