The moon is observed from two diametrically opposite points \(A\) and \(B\) on Earth. The angle \(\theta\) subtended at the moon by the two directions of observation is \(1^{\circ}54'\). Given the diameter of the Earth to be about \(1.276\times 10^{7}~\text{m}\), the distance of the moon from the Earth is:
1. \(2.91\times10^{8}~\text{m}\)
2. \(3.11\times10^{9}~\text{m}\)
3. \(3.84\times10^{8}~\text{m}\)
4. \(1.91\times10^{7}~\text{m}\)

Two clocks are being tested against a standard clock located in a national laboratory. At 12:00:00 noon by the standard clock, the readings of the two clocks are:

Days Clock 1 Clock 2
Monday 12:00:05     10:15:06
Tuesday 12:01:15     10:14:59
Wednesday 11:59:08   10:15:18
Thursday 12:01:50       10:15:07
Friday 11:59:15     10:14:53
Saturday 12:01:30   10:15:24
Sunday 12:01:19   10:15:11


If you are doing an experiment that requires precision time interval measurements, which of the two clocks will you prefer?

1. clock 1
2. clock 2
3. neither clock 1 nor clock 2
4. both clock 1 and clock 2

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%
