$A$ quantity $Q$ is formulated as $Q = X^{-2} Y^{\frac{3}{2}} Z^{-\frac{2}{5}}$. $X, Y$ and $Z$ are independent parameters which have fractional errors of $0.1, 0.2$ and $0.5$,respectively,in measurement. The maximum fractional error of $Q$ is:

  • A
    $0.1$
  • B
    $0.8$
  • C
    $0.7$
  • D
    $0.6$

Two intervals of time are measured as $\Delta t_1 = (2.00 \pm 0.02) \ s$ and $\Delta t_2 = (4.00 \pm 0.02) \ s$. The value of $\sqrt{(\Delta t_1)(\Delta t_2)}$ with correct significant figures and error is

$A$ student measures the distance traversed in free fall of a body,initially at rest,in a given time. He uses this data to estimate $g$,the acceleration due to gravity. If the maximum percentage errors in measurement of the distance and the time are $e_1$ and $e_2$ respectively,the percentage error in the estimation of $g$ is:
