In an experiment,the coefficient of viscosity (in $mPa \cdot s$) of a liquid was determined as $2.62, 2.68, 2.58, 2.57, 2.54$ and $2.55$. The mean absolute error in the determination of the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is

  • A
    $0.08 mPa \cdot s$
  • B
    $0.12 mPa \cdot s$
  • C
    $0.06 mPa \cdot s$
  • D
    $0.04 mPa \cdot s$

$A$ student measures the distance traversed in free fall of a body,initially at rest,in a given time. He uses this data to estimate $g$,the acceleration due to gravity. If the maximum percentage errors in measurement of the distance and the time are $e_1$ and $e_2$ respectively,the percentage error in the estimation of $g$ is:

Why should the measurement of physical quantities with large exponents in an experiment be taken with high precision?

In an experiment for determination of the focal length of a thin convex lens,the distance of the object from the lens is $10 \pm 0.1 \text{ cm}$ and the distance of its real image from the lens is $20 \pm 0.2 \text{ cm}$. The error in the determination of focal length of the lens is $n \%$. The value of $n$ is. . . . . . .
