|10 You have carried out an experiment to investigate the effect of the length of a pendulum on the time period of oscillation. Theory says that the pendulum should follow the rule Where T is the time period (seconds) Lis the length of the pendulum (metre) G is the acceleration due to gravity (g=9.81m/s³) alculate the expected peroentage error in the time period calculation if your measurement of length is 5% high

Please solve this question using binomial expansion  or series as this is what my teacher stated. Please write the answer rather than type as I find it hard to follow typed answers. Thanks.

10 You have carried out an experiment to
investigate the effect of the length of a pendulum
on the time period of oscillation. Theory says that
the pendulum should follow the rule
Where T is the time period (seconds)
Lis the length of the pendulum (metre)
G is the acceleration due to gravity (g=9.81m/s)
alculate the expected percentage error in the time period calculation if your measurement of length is 5% high
