The measured value of the length of a simple pendulum is $20 \mathrm{~cm}$ with $2 \mathrm{~mm}$ accuracy. The time for $50$ oscillations was measured to be $40$ seconds with $1$ second resolution. From these measurements, the accuracy in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is $\mathrm{N} \%$. The value of $\mathrm{N}$ is:
