If the measurement errors in all the independent quantities are known, then it is possible to determine the error in any dependent quantity. This is done by the use of series expansion and truncating the expansion at the first power of the error. For example, consider the relation $$z = x/y.$$ If the errors in $$x,y$$ and $$z$$ are $$\Delta x,\Delta y$$ and $$\Delta z,$$ respectively, then
$$$z \pm \Delta z = {{x \pm \Delta x} \over {y \pm \Delta y}} = {x \over y}\left( {1 \pm {{\Delta x} \over x}} \right){\left( {1 \pm {{\Delta y} \over y}} \right)^{ - 1}}.$$$
The series expansion for $${\left( {1 \pm {{\Delta y} \over y}} \right)^{ - 1}},$$ to first power in $$\Delta y/y.$$ is $$1 \pm \left( {\Delta y/y} \right).$$ The relative errors in independent variables are always added. So the error in $$z$$ will be
$$$\Delta z = z\left( {{{\Delta x} \over x} + {{\Delta y} \over y}} \right).$$$
The above derivation makes the assumption that $$\Delta x/x < < 1,$$ $$\Delta y/y < < 1.$$ Therefore, the higher powers of these quantities are neglected.
Consider the ratio $$r = {{\left( {1 - a} \right)} \over {1 + a}}$$ to be determined by measuring a dimensionless quantity $$a.$$ If the error in the measurement of $$a$$ is $$\Delta a\left( {\Delta a/a < < 1.} \right.$$ then what is the error $$\Delta r$$ in determining $$r$$?
$$$z \pm \Delta z = {{x \pm \Delta x} \over {y \pm \Delta y}} = {x \over y}\left( {1 \pm {{\Delta x} \over x}} \right){\left( {1 \pm {{\Delta y} \over y}} \right)^{ - 1}}.$$$

A dense collection of equal number of electrons and positive ions is called neutral plasma. Certain solids containing
fixed positive ions surrounded by free electrons can be treated as neutral plasma. Let 'N' be the number density of
free electrons, each of mass 'm'. When the electrons are subjected to an electric field, they are displaced relatively
away from the heavy positive ions. If the electric field becomes zero, the electrons begin to oscillate about the
positive ions with a natural angular frequency '$${\omega _p}$$' which is called the plasma frequency. To sustain the oscillations,
a time varying electric field needs to be applied that has an angular frequency $$\omega $$, where a part of the energy is
absorbed and a part of it is reflected. As $$\omega $$ approaches $${\omega _p}$$ all the free electrons are set to resonance together and all
the energy is reflected. This is the explanation of high reflectivity of metals.
Taking the electronic charge as 'e' and the permittivity as $$'{\varepsilon _0}'$$. Use dimensional analysis to determine the correct expression for $${\omega _p}$$.
