The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is $T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$. The measured value of $L$ is $1.0 \text{ m}$ using a meter scale with a minimum division of $1 \text{ mm}$,and the time for one complete oscillation is $1.95 \text{ s}$ measured using a stopwatch with a resolution of $0.01 \text{ s}$. The percentage error in the determination of $g$ will be ..... $\%$.
