While measuring the acceleration due to gravity by a simple pendulum , a student makes a positive error of 1% in the length of the pendulum and a negative error of 3% in the value of time period . His percentage error in the measurement of g by the relation g = 4 pi^(2) ( l // T^(2)) will be

For simple pendulum, T = 2pi sqrt((l)/(g)) where T is the periodic time and l is the length of pendulum. If there is 4% error in the measure of periodic time then find the error percentage in the length of pendulum.
