The time period of a simple pendulum is given by $T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\ell}{g}}$. The measured value of the length of the pendulum is $10 \ cm$ known to a $1 \ mm$ accuracy. The time for $200$ oscillations of the pendulum is found to be $100 \ s$ using a clock of $1 \ s$ resolution. The percentage accuracy in the determination of $g$ using this pendulum is $x$. The value of $x$ to the nearest integer is ...........$\%$

In an experiment,four quantities $a, b, c, d$ are measured with percentage errors $2\%$,$1\%$,$3\%$ and $5\%$,respectively. Quantity $P$ is calculated as $P = \frac{a^2 b^2}{c d}$. Find the percentage error in measuring $P$. (in $\%$)

$A$ physical quantity $P$ is related to four observables $a, b, c$ and $d$ as $P = \frac{\sqrt{a b} \cdot d^\alpha}{\sqrt{c}}$ (where $\alpha$ is a constant). The percentage errors in $a, b, c$ and $d$ are $0.5 \%$ each. If the percentage error in $P$ is $2 \%$,then the value of $\alpha$ is:
