The acceleration due to gravity is measured on the surface of earth by using a simple pendulum. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are relative errors in the measurement of length and time period respectively, then percentage error in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is ................
The length of a cylinder is measured with a metre rod having least count $0.1 \;cm$. Its diameter is measured with vernier calipers having least count $0.01\; cm$. If the length and diameter of the cylinder are $5.0\; cm$ and $2.00\; cm$, respectively, then the percentage error in the calculated value of volume will be
The following observations were taken for determining surface tension $T$ of water by capillary method:
diameter of capillary, $D= 1.25 \times 10^{-2}\; m$
rise of water, $h=1.45 \times 10^{-2}\; m $
Using $g= 9.80 \;m/s^2$ and the simplified relation $T = \frac{{rhg}}{2}\times 10^3 N/m$ , the possible error in surface tension is ........... $\%$
Write rule for error produced in result due to addition and subtraction of error.
In a simple pendulum experiment for determination of acceleration due to gravity $(g)$, time taken for $20$ oscillations is measured by using a watch of $1\, second$ least count. The mean value of time taken comes out to be $30\,s$. The length of pendulum is measured by using a meter scale of least count $1\, mm$ and the value obtained is $55.0\, cm$. The percentage error in the determination of $g$ is close to ........... $\%$
