The measured value of the length of a simple pendulum is $20 \ cm$ with $2 \ mm$ accuracy. The time for $50$ oscillations was measured to be $40 \ s$ with $1 \ s$ resolution. From these measurements,the accuracy in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is $N \%$. The value of $N$ is:

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $8$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $5$

$A$ wooden cubical block of mass $m = 20 \text{ kg}$ is measured within an error of $10 \text{ g}$. Its side length $l = 100 \text{ cm}$ is measured within an error of $1 \text{ mm}$. Then, the relative error in the measurement of its density is

An experiment is performed to obtain the value of acceleration due to gravity $g$ by using a simple pendulum of length $L$. In this experiment,the time for $100$ oscillations is measured by using a watch of $1$ second least count,and the value is $90.0$ seconds. The length $L$ is measured by using a meter scale of least count $1$ mm,and the value is $20.0$ cm. The error in the determination of $g$ would be ........... $\%$.

The relative density of the material of a body is found by weighing it first in air and then in water. If the weight in air is $(5.00 \pm 0.05) \ N$ and the weight in water is $(4.00 \pm 0.05) \ N$,then the relative density along with the maximum permissible percentage error is:

The current in a diode is given by the equation $I = (e^{1000V/T} - 1)$,where $V$ is the applied voltage in volts and $T$ is the absolute temperature in kelvin. $A$ student measures the current as $11 \text{ mA}$ at $300 \text{ K}$. If the error in measuring voltage is $\pm 0.01 \text{ V}$,the error in the value of current in $\text{mA}$ is:
