The mean length of an object is \(5~\text{cm}\). Which of the following measurements is the most accurate?

The periods of oscillation of a simple pendulum in an experiment are recorded as 2.63 s, 2.56 s, 2.42 s, 2.71 s, and 2.80 s respectively. The average absolute error will be:

1. 0.1 s

2. 0.11 s

3. 0.01 s

4. 1.0 s

The length and breadth of a rectangular sheet are \(16.2\) cm and \(10.1\) cm, respectively. The area of the sheet in appropriate significant figures and error would be, respectively,

A wire has a mass of \((0.3\pm0.003)\) grams, a radius of \((0.5\pm 0.005)\) mm, and a length of \((0.6\pm0.006)\) cm. The maximum percentage error in the measurement of its density will be:
1. \(1\)
2. \(2\)
3. \(3\)
4. \(4\)

The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is given by \(T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\) where \(l\) is about \(100~\text{cm}\) and is known to have \(1~\text{mm}\) accuracy. The period is about \(2~\text{s}\). The time of \(100\) oscillations is measured by a stopwatch of least count \(0.1~\text{s}\). The percentage error in \(g\) is:
1. \(0.1\%\)
2. \(1\%\)
3. \(0.2\%\)
4. \(0.8\%\)

The percentage errors in the measurement of mass and speed are \(2\%\) and \(3\%\) respectively. How much will be the maximum error in the estimation of the kinetic energy obtained by measuring mass and speed:

A physical quantity \(P\) is given by \(P=\dfrac{A^3 B^{1/2}}{C^{-4}D^{3/2}}.\) The quantity which contributes the maximum percentage error in \(P\) is:

In an experiment, the percentage errors that occurred in the measurement of physical quantities \(A,\) \(B,\) \(C,\) and \(D\) are \(1\%\), \(2\%\), \(3\%\), and \(4\%\) respectively. Then, the maximum percentage of error in the measurement of \(X,\) where \(X=\frac{A^2 B^{\frac{1}{2}}}{C^{\frac{1}{3}} D^3}\), will be:
1. \(10\%\)
2. \(\frac{3}{13}\%\)
3. \(16\%\)
4. \(-10\%\)

Two resistors \(R_1 = (3.0\pm0.3)~\Omega\) and \(R_2 = (5.0 \pm0.1)~\Omega\) are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance, \(R_{eq}\), will be:
Hint: \({1 \over R_{eq}} = {1 \over R_{1}} + {1 \over R_{2}} \)
