A student performs an experiment for determination of `g(=(4pi^(2)l)/(T^(2))),~~1m`, and he commits an error of `Deltal`.
For `T` he takes the time of `n` oscillations with the stop watch of least count `Delta` and he commits is human error of `0.1sec`. For which of the following data, the measurement of `g` will be most accurate?

A

`DeltaL=0.5 ,DeltaT=0.1,n=20`

B

`DeltaL=0.5 ,DeltaT=0.1,n=50`

C

`DeltaL=0.5 ,DeltaT=0.01,n=20`

D

`DeltaL=0.5 ,DeltaT=0.05,n=50`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`(Deltag)/g=(DeltaL)/L+2 (DeltaT)/T`
In option (D) error in `Deltag` is minimum and number of repetition of measurement are maximum. In this case the error in g is minimum.

In an experiment of determine acceleration due to gravity by simple pendulum, a student commits 1% positive error in the measurement of length and 3% negative error in the time then % error in g will be

In an experiment to determine acceleration due to gravity, the length of the pendulum is measured as 98 cm be a scale of least count of 1 cm. The period of swing/oscillations is measured with the help of a stop watch having a least count of 1s. The time period of 50 oscillation is found to be 98 s. Express value of g with proper error limits.

A student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly 2m long, by Searle's method. In a partcular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be 0.8mm with an uncertainty of +- 0.05mm at a load of exactly 1.0kg , the student also measures the diameter of the wire to be 0.4mm with an uncertainty of +-0.01mm . Take g=9.8m//s^(2) (exact). the Young's modulus obtained from the reading is
