If the radius of a sphere is measured as 10cm with an error of 0.01 cm, then find the approximate error in calculating its volume.

a
0.4π  cm3
b
0.41π  cm3
c
0.42π  cm3
d
4π  cm3

detailed solution

Correct option is D

measuring the radius, then r=10cm and Δr=0.01cm.     Now the volume V of the sphere is given byV=43πr3dVdr=4πr2dV=dVdrΔr=4πr2Δr=4π(10)2(0.01)cm3=4πcm3Thus, the approximate error in calculating the volume is 4π  cm3
