What is the difference between a mistake and an error in the context of physical measurements?

Two resistors of resistances $R_{1} = 100 \pm 3 \ \Omega$ and $R_{2} = 200 \pm 4 \ \Omega$ are connected $(a)$ in series,$(b)$ in parallel. Find the equivalent resistance of the $(a)$ series combination,$(b)$ parallel combination. Use for $(a)$ the relation $R = R_{1} + R_{2}$ and for $(b)$ $\frac{1}{R^{\prime}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} + \frac{1}{R_{2}}$ and $\frac{\Delta R^{\prime}}{R^{\prime 2}} = \frac{\Delta R_{1}}{R_{1}^{2}} + \frac{\Delta R_{2}}{R_{2}^{2}}$.

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

The acceleration due to gravity is found up to an accuracy of $4\,\%$ on a planet. The energy supplied to a simple pendulum of known mass '$m$' to undertake oscillations of time period $T$ is being estimated. If the time period is measured to an accuracy of $3\,\%$,the accuracy to which $E$ is known is $..........\,\%$.
