The current-voltage relation of a diode is given by $I = (e^{1000V/T} - 1) \text{ mA}$,where the applied voltage $V$ is in volts and the temperature $T$ is in Kelvin. If a student makes an error of $\pm 0.01 \text{ V}$ while measuring the voltage to obtain a current of $5 \text{ mA}$ at $300 \text{ K}$,what will be the error in the value of current in $\text{mA}$?

  • A
    $0.02$
  • B
    $0.5$
  • C
    $0.05$
  • D
    $0.2$
