A vernier callipers used by student has $20$ divisions in $1\;cm$ on main scale. $10$ vernier divisions coincide with $9$ main scale divisions. When jaws are closed, zero of main scale is on left of zero of vernier scale and $6\ th$ division of vernier scale coincides with any of main scale divisions. He places a wooden cylinder in between the jaws and measures the length. The zero of vernier scale is on right of $3.20\;cm$ and $8\ th$ vernier division coincides with any main scale division. When he measures thickness of cylinder he finds that zero of vernier scale lies on right of $1.50\;cm$ mark of main scale and $6\ th$ division of vernier scale coincides with any main scale division. The correct values of measured length and diameter are respectively
  • A$3.21\ cm,$ $1.50$  $cm$
  • B$3.210$ $cm,$ $1.500$  $cm$
  • C$3.27$ $cm,$ $1.93$  $cm$
  • D$3.270$ $cm,$ $1.560$ $cm$

    An experiment is performed to obtain the value of acceleration due to gravity $g$ by using a simple pendulum of length $L$. In this experiment time for $100\, oscillations$ is measured by using a watch of $1\, second$ least count and the value is $90.0\, seconds$. The length $L$ is measured by using a meter scale of least count $1\, mm$ and the value is $20.0\, cm$. The  error in the determination of $g$ would be  ........... $\%$
