    The advantage of electrodynamometer type instrument is that these instruments are free from hysteresis and eddy current errors.

    Correct Option: A

    The advantage of electrodynamometer type instrument is that these instruments are free from hysteresis and eddy current errors.


  1. The sensitivity of an instrument is the:

    The sensitivity of an instrument is the ratio of the change in the magnitude of the output to the corresponding change in the magtidue of the input.

    Correct Option: C

    The sensitivity of an instrument is the ratio of the change in the magnitude of the output to the corresponding change in the magtidue of the input.



  1. The measured value of resistance is 105Ω and its true value is 100Ω. The relative percentage error will be:









  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Given, Measured value = 105Ω
    True value = 100Ω
    = Measured value – True value
    Absolute error, δA = 105 – 100 = 5

    Relative error =
    Absolute error
    true value

    or
    Relative error =
    δA
    =
    5
    = 0.05
    A100

    Percentage error = 5%

    Correct Option: A

    Given, Measured value = 105Ω
    True value = 100Ω
    = Measured value – True value
    Absolute error, δA = 105 – 100 = 5

    Relative error =
    Absolute error
    true value

    or
    Relative error =
    δA
    =
    5
    = 0.05
    A100

    Percentage error = 5%
