The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is given by where l is about 80 cm and is known to have 0.1 cm accuracy. The period is about 1.5 s. the time of 50 oscillation is measured by a stop watch of least count 0.1s. the percentage error in g is nearly

Answer: (B)

Solution

From we get , so the fractional error is . Length error: . The time of 50 oscillations is s with least count s, so
