Question
An error in the measurement of the radius of a circle results in an error in the computation of its area. Find and interpret the sensitivity of area (a) of a circle to the measurement of radius, r, when the radius r=2 meters.
Answers
a = πr^2
da = 2πr dr
The error is ∆a which for small errors is approximately da.
So plug and chug.
Now, what does it all <u>mean</u>?
