) A metal cylinder has a length of 4 cm and diameter 2 cm. What percent uncertainty is introduced into the calculated circumference by an uncertainty of 0.01 cm in the diameter measurement? What percent uncertainty does this introduce in the calculated volume?
Given,
Length of the metal cylinder
Diameter
Uncertainty in the measurement of circumference = 0.01cm
percentage uncertainty in the measurement of volume(V)=?
Hence, the required change in volume be 3%.
