Answer to Question #314362 in Electricity and Magnetism for Jega

Question

Calculate the percentage error for each of the resistor if the real values of the resistor is given as R1=100ohms

Answer 1

Assume ∆R=0.01

R=100$\Omega$

% error =$\frac{∆R}{R}\times100$

% error=$\frac{0.01}{100}\times100=0.01$ %

% error=0.01%
