a Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment.
Systematic errors in experimental observations usually come from the measuring instruments.
Thus zero error is recognized as the systematic error (factual).

There are $100$ divisions on the circular scale of a screw gauge of pitch $1 \mathrm{~mm}$. With no measuring quantity in between the jaws, the zero of the circular scale lies $5$ divisions below the reference line. The diameter of a wire is then measured using this screw gauge. It is found the $4$ linear scale divisions are clearly visible while $60$ divisions on circular scale coincide with the reference line. The diameter of the wire is :
Let $l, r, c$ and $v$ represent inductance, resistance, capacitance and voltage, respectively. The dimension of $\frac {1}{rcv}$ in $SI\,units$ will be
The length, breadth and thickness of a block are given by $l = 12\,cm,\,b = 6\,cm$ and $t = 2.45\,cm$ The volume of the block according to the idea of significant figures should be
In an experiment, the following observation's were recorded : $L = 2.820\, m, M = 3.00 \,kg, l = 0.087 \,cm$, Diameter $D = 0.041 \,cm$ Taking $g = 9.81$ $m/{s^2}$ using the formula , $Y=\frac{{4MgL}}{{\pi {D^2}l}}$, the maximum permissible error in $Y$ is ......... $\%$
