The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the relative errors in \( T \) and \( L \) given that \( T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{G}} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the expression for \( T \)**: \[ T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{G}} \] 2. **Take the logarithm of both sides**: \[ \log T = \log(2\pi) + \frac{1}{2} \log L - \frac{1}{2} \log G \] 3. **Differentiate both sides**: Using the property of logarithms and differentiation, we have: \[ \frac{dT}{T} = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{dL}{L} - \frac{1}{2} \frac{dG}{G} \] Since \( G \) is a constant, \( \frac{dG}{G} = 0 \). Thus, we simplify to: \[ \frac{dT}{T} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{dL}{L} \] 4. **Relate differentials to errors**: We can approximate differentials with errors: \[ \frac{\Delta T}{T} \approx \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta L}{L} \] 5. **Express the ratio of relative errors**: Rearranging gives us: \[ \frac{\Delta T/T}{\Delta L/L} = \frac{1}{2} \] 6. **Conclusion**: The ratio of the relative errors in \( T \) and \( L \) is: \[ \frac{\Delta T/T}{\Delta L/L} = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Final Answer: The ratio of the relative errors in \( T \) and \( L \) is \( \frac{1}{2} \).
