Q1 Single Correct Medium
The density of a solid ball is to be determined in an experiment. The diameter of the ball is measured with a screw gauge, whose pitch is $0.5$mm and there are $50$ divisions on the circular scale. The reading on the main scale is $2.5$ mm and that on the circular scale is $20$ divisions. If the measured mass of the ball has a relative error of $2\%$, the relative percentage error in the density is?
• A. $0.9\%$
• B. $2.4\%$
• C. $3.1\%$
• D. $4.2\%$
