A physical quantity $A$ is dependent on other four physical quantities $p, q, r$ and $s$ as given below $A=\frac{\sqrt{pq}}{r^2s^3} .$ The percentage error of measurement in $p, q, r$ and $s$ $1\%,$ $3\%,\,\, 0.5\%$ and $0.33\%$ respectively, then the maximum percentage error in $A$ is .......... $\%$

A person measures the depth of a well by measuring the time interval between dropping a stone and receiving the sound of impact with the bottom of the well. The error in his measurement of time is $\delta \mathrm{T}=0.01$ seconds and he measures the depth of the well to be $\mathrm{L}=20$ meters. Take the acceleration due to gravity $\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}$ and the velocity of sound is $300 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$. Then the fractional error in the measurement, $\delta \mathrm{L} / \mathrm{L}$, is closest to
$Assertion$ : The error in the measurement of radius of the sphere is $0.3\%$. The permissible error in its surface area is $0.6\%$
$Reason$ : The permissible error is calculated by the formula $\frac{{\Delta A}}{A} = \frac{{4\Delta r}}{r}$
The length and breadth of a rectangle are $(5.7 \pm 0.1) cm$ and $(3.4 \pm 0.2) cm$, respectively. Calculate the area of rectangle with error limits.
The least count of stop watch is $\frac{1}{5}\,second$. The time of $20$ oscillations of pendulum is measured to be $25\,seconds$. Then percentage error in the measurement of time will be.......... $\%$
