Three students {S}_{1}, {S}_{2} and {S}_{3} perform an experiment for determining the acceleration due to gravity (g) using a simple pendulum. They use different lengths of pendulum and record time for different number of oscillations. The observationsare as shown in the table. Student No. Length of pendulum (cm No. of oscillations (n) Total time for n oscillations Time period (s) 1. 64.0 8 128.0 16.0 2. 64.0 4 64.0 16.0 3. 20.0 4 36.0 9.0 (Least count of length = 0.1 m least count for time = 0.1 s) If E_1, E_2 and E_3 are the percentage errors in 'g' for students 1, 2 and 3 respectively, then the minimum percentage error is obtained by student no._____.

Three students S1,S2 and S3 perform an experiment for determining the acceleration due to gravity (g) using a simple pendulum. They use different lengths of pendulum and record time for different number of oscillations. The observationsare as shown in the table.

Student No.	Length of pendulum (cm	No. of oscillations (n)	Total time for n oscillations	Time period (s)
1.	64.0	8	128.0	16.0
2.	64.0	4	64.0	16.0
3.	20.0	4	36.0	9.0

(Least count of length = 0.1 m
least count for time = 0.1 s)
If E1,E2 and E3 are the percentage errors in 'g' for students 1, 2 and 3 respectively, then the minimum percentage error is obtained by student no._____.
