The mean time period of second's pendulum is $2.00s$ and mean absolute error in the time period is $0.05s$. To express maximum estimate of error, the time period should be written as
A$(2.00 \pm 0.01) s$
B$(2.00 \pm 0.025) s$
C$(2.00 \pm 0.05) s$
D$(2.00 \pm 0.10) s$

C$(2.00 \pm 0.05) s$
c (c) Mean time period $T = 2.00 \,sec$
& Mean absolute error $ = \Delta T = 0.05\, sec$.
To express maximum estimate of error, the time period should be written as $(2.00 \pm 0.05)\,sec$

For $z=a^{2} x^{3} y^{\frac{1}{2}}$, where $a$ is a constant. If percentage error in measurement of $x$ and $y$ are $4 \%$ and $12 \%$, respectively, then the percentage error for $z$ will be $%$
A screw gauge has $50$ divisions on its circular scale. The circular scale is $4$ units ahead of the pitch scale marking, prior to use. Upon one complete rotation of the circular scale, a displacement of $0.5\, mm$ is noticed on the pitch scale. The nature of zero error involved, and the least count of the screw gauge, are respectively
The maximum error in the measurement of resistance, current and time for which current flows in an electrical circuit are $1 \%, 2 \%$ and $3 \%$ respectively. The maximum percentage error in the detection of the dissipated heat will be
The mass and volume of a body are found to be $(5.00 ± 0.05)\,kg$ and $(1.00 ± 0.05)\,m^3$ respectively. Then the maximum possible percentage error in its density is .......... $\%$
