A student performs an experiment for determination of $g \left(=\frac{4 \pi^{2} l }{ T ^{2}}\right), \ell =1 m$ and he commits an error of $\Delta \ell$. For $T$ he takes the time of $n$ oscillations with the stop watch of least count $\Delta T$ and he commits a human error of $0.1 s$ For which of the following data, the measurement of $g$ will be most accurate?

In the expression for time period $T$ of simple pendulum $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$, if the percentage error in time period $T$ and length $l$ are $2 \%$ and $2 \%$ respectively then percentage error in acceleration due to gravity $g$ is equal to ......... $\%$

Students $I$, $II$ and $III$ perform an experiment for measuring the acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ using a simple pendulum.

They use different lengths of the pendulum and /or record time for different number of oscillations. The observations are shown in the table.

Least count for length $=0.1 \mathrm{~cm}$

Least count for time $=0.1 \mathrm{~s}$

Student Length of the pendulum $(cm)$ Number of oscillations $(n)$ Total time for $(n)$ oscillations $(s)$ Time period $(s)$
$I.$ $64.0$ $8$ $128.0$ $16.0$
$II.$ $64.0$ $4$ $64.0$ $16.0$
$III.$ $20.0$ $4$ $36.0$ $9.0$

If $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{I}}, \mathrm{E}_{\text {II }}$ and $\mathrm{E}_{\text {III }}$ are the percentage errors in g, i.e., $\left(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{g}} \times 100\right)$ for students $\mathrm{I}, \mathrm{II}$ and III, respectively,
