Chapter: 11th Physics : UNIT 1 : Nature of Physical World and
Measurement
Solved Example Problems for Propagation of
errors
Numerical
Physics : Nature analysis
of Physical World and Measurement
(i) Solved Example Problem for Error in the sum of two
quantities
Example 1.5
Two resistances R1 = (100 ± 3) Ω, R2 = (150 ± 2) Ω, are connected in series.
What is their equivalent resistance?
Solution
Equivalent resistance R = ?
Equivalent resistance R = R1 + R2
(ii) Solved Example Problem for Error in the difference of two
quantities
Example 1.6
The temperatures of two bodies measured by a thermometer are t1 = (20 +
0.5)°C, t2 = (50 ± 0.5)°C. Calculate the temperature difference and the error
therein.
Numerical analysis
Solution
(iii) Example Problem for Error in the product of two
quantities
Example 1.7
The length and breadth of a rectangle are (5.7 ± 0.1) cm and (3.4 ± 0.2) cm
respectively. Calculate the area of the rectangle with error limits.
Solution
Numerical analysis
(iv) Example Problem for Error in the division or quotient of
two quantities
Example 1.8
The voltage across a wire is (100 ± 5)V and the current passing through it is
(10±0.2) A. Find the resistance of the wire.
Solution
Numerical analysis
(v) Example Problem for Error in the power of a quantity
Example 1.9
A physical quantity x is given by x
If the percentage errors of measurement in a, b, c and d are 4%, 2%, 3% and
Numerical analysis
1% respectively then calculate the percentage error in the calculation of x.
Solution
The percentage error in x is given by
The percentage error is x = 17.5%
