Thickness of a pencil measured by using a screw gauge (least count $0.001 \,cm$ ) comes out to be $0.802 \,cm$. The percentage error in the measurement is ........... $\%$
$0.125$
$2.43$
$4.12$

What is least count ? What is called least count error ?
If error in measuring diameter of a circle is $4\%$, the error in circumference of the circle would be
The length $l$, breadth b and thickness t of a block of wood were measured with the help of a measuring scale. The results with permissible errors are $l=15.12 \pm 0.01\; cm , t =5.28 \pm 0.01 \;cm$ $b =10.15 \pm 0.01\; cm$. The percentage error in volume upto proper significant figures is
The relative density of material of a body is found by weighing it first in air and then in water. If the weight in air is ($5.00 \pm 0.05$) Newton and weight in water is ($4.00 \pm 0.05$) Newton. Then the relative density along with the maximum permissible percentage error is
