The density of a uniform cylinder is given by ρ=Vm=πd2l4m
The percentage fractional error in density is given by:
ρΔρ×100=(mΔm+2dΔd+lΔl)×100
Substituting the given values:
ρΔρ×100=(97.420.02+2×20.200.02+8.350.05)×100
ρΔρ×100=(0.000205+0.00198+0.005988)×100
ρΔρ×100=0.008173×100=0.8173%
Rounding off to two decimal places, the percentage error is 0.82%.
Answer: 0.82%
