In an experiment,the following observations were recorded: $L = 2.820 \, m, M = 3.00 \, kg, l = 0.087 \, cm$,Diameter $D = 0.041 \, cm$. Taking $g = 9.81 \, m/s^2$ and using the formula $Y = \frac{4MgL}{\pi D^2 l}$,the maximum permissible error in $Y$ is ......... $\%$.

The mean time period of a second's pendulum is $2.00 \, s$ and the mean absolute error in the time period is $0.05 \, s$. To express the maximum estimate of error,the time period should be written as:

In the expression for time period $T$ of a simple pendulum $T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$,if the percentage error in time period $T$ and length $l$ are $2 \%$ and $2 \%$ respectively,then the percentage error in acceleration due to gravity $g$ is equal to ......... $\%$
