What is the fractional error in $g$ calculated from $T = 2\pi \sqrt {l/g} $ ? Given fraction errors in $T$ and $l$ are $ \pm x$ and $ \pm y$ respectively?
In an experiment to determine the acceleration due to gravity $g$, the formula used for the time period of a periodic motion is $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{7(R-r)}{5 g}}$. The values of $R$ and $r$ are measured to be $(60 \pm 1) \mathrm{mm}$ and $(10 \pm 1) \mathrm{mm}$, respectively. In five successive measurements, the time period is found to be $0.52 \mathrm{~s}, 0.56 \mathrm{~s}, 0.57 \mathrm{~s}, 0.54 \mathrm{~s}$ and $0.59 \mathrm{~s}$. The least count of the watch used for the measurement of time period is $0.01 \mathrm{~s}$. Which of the following statement($s$) is(are) true?
($A$) The error in the measurement of $r$ is $10 \%$
($B$) The error in the measurement of $T$ is $3.57 \%$
($C$) The error in the measurement of $T$ is $2 \%$
($D$) The error in the determined value of $g$ is $11 \%$
A student uses a simple pendulum of exactly $1 \mathrm{~m}$ length to determine $\mathrm{g}$, the acceleration due to gravity. He uses a stop watch with the least count of $1 \mathrm{sec}$ for this and records $40$ seconds for $20$ oscillations. For this observation, which of the following statement$(s)$ is (are) true?
$(A)$ Error $\Delta T$ in measuring $T$, the time period, is $0.05$ seconds
$(B)$ Error $\Delta \mathrm{T}$ in measuring $\mathrm{T}$, the time period, is $1$ second
$(C)$ Percentage error in the determination of $g$ is $5 \%$
$(D)$ Percentage error in the determination of $g$ is $2.5 \%$
