The period of oscillation of a simple pendulum is Measured value of L is 20 cm known to 1mm accuracy and time for 100 oscillations of the pendulum is found to be 90 s using a wrist-watch of 1 s resolution. The accuracy in the determination of g is
detailed solution
Correct option is C
Given, T=2πLgor g=4π2LT2Hence, T=tn and ΔT=Δtn∴ ΔTT=ΔttThe errors in both L and t are the least count errors. Therefore, (Δgg)=(ΔLL)+2(ΔTT)=0.120.0+2(190)=0.027The percentage error in g is(Δgg)×100=(ΔLL)×100+2×(ΔTT)×100=3%Similar Questions
