Experimental value of acceleration due to gravity is found to be 9.842 m/s2. The accepted value of acceleration due to
gravity is 9.81 m/s2. What is the percent error in calculation?

0.33%

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Experimental value = 9.842 m/s²

Accepted value = 9.81 m/s²

Percentage error =?

The percentage error in the calculation can be obtained as follow:

Percentage error = |Experimental – Accepted| / Accepted value × 100

Percentage error = |9.842 – 9.81| / 9.81 × 100

Percentage error = 0.032 / 9.81 × 100

Percentage error = 0.33%

Therefore, the error in the calculation is 0.33%
