The measurements of two quantities along with the precision of their respective measuring instruments are $A = 2.5 \, m/s \pm 0.5 \, m/s$ and $B = 0.10 \, s \pm 0.01 \, s$. The value of $AB$ will be:

  • A
    $(0.25 \pm 0.08) \, m$
  • B
    $(0.25 \pm 0.5) \, m$
  • C
    $(0.25 \pm 0.05) \, m$
  • D
    $(0.25 \pm 0.135) \, m$
