We measure the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum. In successive measurements, the readings turn out to the 2.63 sec, 2.56 sec, 2.42 se, 2.71 sec, 2.80 sec

A

The absolute errors in the measurements are 0.01 sec, 0.06 sec, 0.20 sec, 0.20 sec, 0.09 sec, 0.18 sec

B

The mean absolute error is 0.11 sec

C

Then mean time period can be reported as `(2.62+0.11)` sec.

D

The time period can actually reported as `(2.6+0.1)` sec, with a percentatge error of 4%
