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:

  • A
    $(2.00 \pm 0.01) \, s$
  • B
    $(2.00 \pm 0.025) \, s$
  • C
    $(2.00 \pm 0.05) \, s$
  • D
    $(2.00 \pm 0.10) \, s$
