$A$ body travels uniformly a distance of $(13.8 \pm 0.2) \text{ m}$ in a time $(4.0 \pm 0.3) \text{ s}$. Its velocity with error limits and percentage error is

  • A
    $(4.0 \pm 0.31) \text{ m/s}, \pm 8\%$
  • B
    $(3.5 \pm 0.31) \text{ m/s}, \pm 9\%$
  • C
    $(5.0 \pm 0.37) \text{ m/s}, \pm 9\%$
  • D
    $(3.8 \pm 0.34) \text{ m/s}, \pm 7\%$

$A$ student measures the distance traversed in free fall of a body,initially at rest,in a given time. He uses this data to estimate $g$,the acceleration due to gravity. If the maximum percentage errors in measurement of the distance and the time are $e_1$ and $e_2$ respectively,the percentage error in the estimation of $g$ is:
