The percentage error in the measurement of $g$ is $.....\%$ (Given that $g = \frac{4 \pi^2 L}{T^2}$,$L = (10 \pm 0.1) \, cm$,$T = (100 \pm 1) \, s$)

The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is given by $T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$ where $l$ is about $80\text{ cm}$ and is known to have $0.1\text{ cm}$ accuracy. The period is about $1.5\text{ s}$. The time of $50$ oscillations is measured by a stop watch of least count $0.1\text{ s}$. The percentage error in $g$ is nearly

In an experiment,four quantities $p, q, r$,and $s$ are measured with percentage errors of $3 \%, 2 \%, 3 \%$,and $1 \%$ respectively. Quantity $A$ is calculated as follows: $A = \frac{pq^2}{r^2 s^4}$. The percentage error in $A$ is: (in $\%$)
