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,
| 1. | \(164\pm3~\text{cm}^2\) | 2. | \(163.62\pm2.6~\text{cm}^2\) |
| 3. | \(163.6\pm2.6~\text{cm}^2\) | 4. | \(163.62\pm3~\text{cm}^2\) |
We measure the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum. In successive measurements, the readings turn out to be 2.63 s, 2.56 s, 2.42 s, 2.71 s, and 2.80 s. The average absolute error and percentage error, respectively, are:
1. 0.22 s and 4%
2. 0.11 s and 4%
3. 4 s and 0.11%
4. 5 s and 0.22%
