In an experiment of simple pendulum, the errors in the measurement of length of the pendulum (L) and time period (T) are 3% and 2% respectively. The maximum percentage errors in the value of `L/T^(2)` is

A

0.05

B

0.07

C

0.08

D

0.01

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The maximum percentage error in the value of `L/T^(2)` is, `L/T^(2) = DeltaL/L xx 100% + 2DeltaT/T xx 100% = 3+2xx2 = 7%`
