The acceleration due to gravity is measured on the surface of the Earth by using a simple pendulum. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are relative errors in the measurement of length and time period respectively,then the percentage error in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is ................

  • A
    $(\alpha + 2\beta) \times 100$
  • B
    $(\alpha - 2\beta) \times 100$
  • C
    $(2\alpha + \beta) \times 100$
  • D
    $(\alpha + \frac{1}{2}\beta) \times 100$
