Answer 2

Answer:

percentage error = 2

Explanation:

Formula for calculating velocity is ;

V = √T / √μ                           μ = m / L

V = √TL / √m                          

Uncertainties add up when multiplying or dividing values, gets halfed for square root

percentage error =

= 1/2 T + 1/2 L + ½ m

= 1/2 x 2 + 1/2 x1 + ½ x1

= 4/2

= 2 %
