The energy of a system as a function of time $t$ is given as $E(t)=A^2 \exp(-\alpha t)$,where $\alpha=0.2 \ s^{-1}$. The measurement of $A$ has an error of $1.25 \%$. If the error in the measurement of time is $1.50 \%$,the percentage error in the value of $E(t)$ at $t=5 \ s$ is

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
