Question 7 If the radius of a sphere is measured as 9 m with an error of 0.03 m, then find the approximate error in calculating its surface area.Let r be the radius of the sphere Given r = 9 m Error in measurement of radius = āš āš = 0.03 m Surface area of the sphere = S = 4šš^2 We need to find the error in calculating the surface area ā S ā S = šš /ššĆā"r" = (š("4" šš^2))/ššĆā"r" = "4" š (š(š^2))/ššĆā"r" = 8šr Ć 0.03 = 8š(9) (0.03) = 2.16š hence the approximate error is 2.16š m2
