The least count of a stopwatch is $0.2\, s$. The time for $20\, oscillations$ of a pendulum is measured to be $25\, s$. The percentage error in the measurement of time will be ........ $\%$

What is the difference between a mistake and an error in the context of physical measurements?

The length and breadth of a rectangle are $(5.7 \pm 0.1) \text{ cm}$ and $(3.4 \pm 0.2) \text{ cm}$,respectively. Calculate the area of the rectangle with error limits.

In an experiment of a simple pendulum,the errors in the measurement of the length of the pendulum $(L)$ and time period $(T)$ are $3 \%$ and $2 \%$,respectively. The maximum percentage error in the value of $\frac{L}{T^2}$ is (in $\%$)

$A$ body travels uniformly a distance of $(13.8 \pm 0.2) \ m$ in a time $(4.0 \pm 0.3) \ s$. The velocity of the body within error limits is

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