A student measures the distance traversed in free fall of a body, initially at rest in a given time. He uses this data to estimate \(g,\) the acceleration due to gravity. If the maximum percentage errors in the measurement of the distance and the time are \(e_1\) and \(e_2\) respectively, the percentage error in the estimation of \(g\) is:
1. e1+2e2
2. e1+e2
3. e1-2e2
4. e2-e1
