If a train travels 881 km from Berlin to Paris and then overshoots the end of the track by 15 m , what is the percentage error in the total distance covered?

Respuesta :

Answer:

e= 0.0017 %

Explanation:

given,  

distance between Berlin to Paris = 881 Km

train overshoots the track = 15 m

error percentage = ?

exact value = 881 Km

experiment value = 881 + 0.015 = 881.015 Km

now, error

[tex]e = \dfrac{experiment\ value - exact\ value}{exact\ value}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]e = \dfrac{881.015 - 881}{881}\times 100[/tex]

e= 0.0017 %

error percentage is equal to  e= 0.0017 %
