The time period of a simple pendulum is given by $T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{g}}$. The measured value of the length of the pendulum is $10 \ cm$ known to a $1 \ mm$ accuracy. The time for $200$ oscillations of the pendulum is found to be $100 \ s$ using a clock of $1 \ s$ resolution. The percentage accuracy in the determination of $g$ using this pendulum is $x$. The value of $x$ to the nearest integer is ...........$\%$

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

Write the types of errors in the measurement of a physical quantity and explain them.
