  1. If the error in the measurement of radius of a sphere is 2%, then the error in the determination of volume of the sphere will be :​
    1. 4%
    2. ​6%
    3. 8%
    4. ​2%
Correct Option: B

Error in the measurement of radius of a sphere = 2%

Volume of the sphere =
4
πr3
3

∴ Error in the volume = 3.
∆r
= 3 × 2% = 6%
r
