Using the expression 2d sin q = l, one calculates the values of d by measuring the corresponding angles q in the range 0 to 90°. The wavelength l is exactly known and the error in q is constant for all values of q. As q increases from 0°,
  1. the absolute error in d remains constant
  2. the absolute error in d increases
  3. the fractional error in d remains constant
  4. the fractional error in d decreases

Answer

(D) the fractional error in d decreases
