What is estimation of error ? Write method for estimation.
Maximum error during experiment is estimated and it is represented with result of experiment. This is called estimation of error.
Error is estimated in three ways :
$(1)$ Absolute error $(2)$ Relative error and Fractional error $(3)$ Percentage error.

In an experiment, mass of an object is measured by applying a known force on it, and then measuring its acceleration. If in the experiment, the measured values of applied force and the measured acceleration are $F=10.0 \pm 0.2 \,N$ and $a=1.00 \pm 0.01 \,m / s ^2$, respectively. Then, the mass of the object is ............... $kg$
