$A$ person measures the depth of a well by measuring the time interval between dropping a stone and receiving the sound of impact with the bottom of the well. The error in his measurement of time is $\delta T = 0.01 \ s$ and he measures the depth of the well to be $L = 20 \ m$. Take the acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$ and the velocity of sound $v = 300 \ ms^{-1}$. Then the fractional error in the measurement,$\delta L / L$,is closest to: (in $\%$)
