To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the calculation of the surface, volume and error through the differentiation of the formulas given for the calculation of these values in a circle. Our values given at the beginning are

\phi = 76cm

Error (dr) = 0.5cm

The radius then would be

\phi = 2\pi r \\76cm = 2\pi r\\r = \frac{38}{\pi} cm

And

\frac{d\phi}{dr} = 2\pi \\d\phi = 2\pi dr \\0.5 = 2\pi dr

PART A ) For the Surface Area we have that,

A = 4\pi r^2 \\A = 4\pi (\frac{38}{\pi})^2\\A = \frac{5776}{\pi}

Deriving we have that the change in the Area is equivalent to the maximum error, therefore

\frac{dA}{dr} = 4\pi (2r) \\dA = 4r (2\pi dr)

Maximum error:

dA = 4(\frac{38}{\pi})(0.5)

dA = \frac{76}{\pi}cm^2

The relative error is that between the value of the Area and the maximum error, therefore:

\frac{dA}{A} = \frac{\frac{76}{\pi}}{\frac{5776}{\pi}}

\frac{dA}{A} = 0.01315 = 1.31\%

PART B) For the volume we repeat the same process but now with the formula for the calculation of the volume in a sphere, so

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{38}{\pi})^3

V = \frac{219488}{3\pi^2}

Therefore the Maximum Error would be,

\frac{dV}{dr} = \frac{4}{3} 3\pi r^2

dV = 2r^2 (2\pi dr)

dV = 4r^2 (\pi dr)

Replacing the value for the radius

dV = 4(\frac{38}{\pi})^2(0.5)

dV = \frac{2888}{\pi^2} cm^3

And the relative Error

\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{ \frac{2888}{\pi^2}}{ \frac{219488}{3\pi^2} }

\frac{dV}{V} = 0.03947

\frac{dV}{V} = 3.947\%

What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains four 75.0 resistors connected in parallel with a 100.0 V battery?
zhannawk [14.2K]
To get the total resistance in a parallel circuit, you need to remember that unlike in a series, you do not just merely add the resistances. You need to get the reciprocal first of each resistance and add them together. 

\frac{1}{R_{T}} =  \frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}+\frac{1}{R_{3}}... +\frac{1}{R_{n}}

After adding them, you will get the reciprocal again and then compute for the value. The problem says that there are 4 resistors in the circuit that have a resistance of 75.

\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{75}+\frac{1}{75}+\frac{1}{75}+\frac{1}{75}

Add up the numerator and copy the denominator:

\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{4}{75}

Then get the reciprocal to get the total resistance:

R _{T} = \frac{75}{4}  = 18.75

The answer to your question then is A. 18.8.
