The mean time period of second's pendulum is 2.00 s and mean absolute error in the time period is 0.05s. To express maximum estimate of error, the time period should be written as

A

`(2.00+-0.01)s`

B

`(2.00+-0.025)s`

C

`(2.00+-0.05)s`

D

`(2.00+-0.10)s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Mean time period`T=2.00`sec
and Mean absolute error`=triangleT=0.05` sec
To express maximum estimate of error, the time period should be written as `(2.00+-0.05)` sec
