We measure the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum. In successive measurements, the readings turn out to be 2.63 s, 2.56 s, 2.42 s, 2.71 s, and 2.80 s. The average absolute error and percentage error, respectively, are:
1. 0.22 s and 4%
2. 0.11 s and 4%
3. 4 s and 0.11%
4. 5 s and 0.22%
A screw gauge gives the following readings when used to measure the diameter of a wire:
Main scale reading: \(0\) mm
Circular scale reading: \(52\) divisions
Given that \(1\) mm on the main scale corresponds to \(100\) divisions on the circular scale, the diameter of the wire that can be inferred from the given data is:
1. | \(0.26\) cm | 2. | \(0.052\) cm |
3. | \(0.52\) cm | 4. | \(0.026\) cm |
The mean length of an object is \(5~\text{cm}\). Which of the following measurements is the most accurate?
1. | \(4.9~\text{cm}\) | 2. | \(4.805~\text{cm}\) |
3. | \(5.25~\text{cm}\) | 4. | \(5.4~\text{cm}\) |
The numbers \(2.745\) and \(2.735\) on rounding off to \(3\) significant figures will give respectively,
1. | \(2.75\) and \(2.74\) | 2. | \(2.74\) and \(2.73\) |
3. | \(2.75\) and \(2.73\) | 4. | \(2.74\) and \(2.74\) |
The mass and volume of a body are \(4.237~\text{grams}\) and \(2.5~\text{cm}^3\), respectively. The density of the material of the body in correct significant figures will be:
1. \(1.6048~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
2. \(1.69~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
3. \(1.7~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
4. \(1.695~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
Which of the following measurements is the most precise?
1. 5.00 mm
2. 5.00 cm
3. 5.00 m
4. 5.00 km
1. | \(9.98\) m | 2. | \(9.980\) m |
3. | \(9.9\) m | 4. | \(9.9801\) m |
A screw gauge has the least count of \(0.01~\text{mm}\) and there are \(50\) divisions in its circular scale. The pitch of the screw gauge is:
