The temperatures of two bodies measured by a thermometer are $t_{1} = 20^{\circ}C \pm 0.5^{\circ}C$ and $t_{2} = 50^{\circ}C \pm 0.5^{\circ}C$. Calculate the temperature difference and the error therein.

  • A
    $70^{\circ}C \pm 1^{\circ}C$
  • B
    $30^{\circ}C \pm 0^{\circ}C$
  • C
    $30^{\circ}C \pm 0.5^{\circ}C$
  • D
    $30^{\circ}C \pm 1^{\circ}C$
