(A) Density $ho = \frac{m}{V} = \frac{m}{\pi r^2 l}$.The relative error in density is given by $\frac{\Delta ho}{ho} = \frac{\Delta m}{m} + 2\frac{\Delta r}{r} + \frac{\Delta l}{l}$.Given values:$m = 0.6 \; g, \Delta m = 0.006 \; g$$r = 0.5 \; mm, \Delta r = 0.005 \; mm$$l = 4 \; cm, \Delta l = 0.04 \; cm$Calculating percentage error:$\frac{\Delta ho}{ho} 	imes 100 = \left( \frac{0.006}{0.6} + 2 	imes \frac{0.005}{0.5} + \frac{0.04}{4} ight) 	imes 100$$= (0.01 + 2 	imes 0.01 + 0.01) 	imes 100$$= (0.01 + 0.02 + 0.01) 	imes 100 = 0.04 	imes 100 = 4 \%$.
