You measure two quantities as $\text{A} = 1.0 \text{m}\pm 0.2 \text{m},\ \text{B} = 2.0 \text{m}\pm 0.2 \text{m}.$ We should report correct value for $\sqrt{\text{AB}}$ as:
Two large, identical water tanks, $1$ and $2$ , kept on the top of a building of height $H$, are filled with water up to height $h$ in each tank. Both the tanks contain an identical hole of small radius on their sides, close to their bottom. A pipe of the same internal radius as that of the hole is connected to tank $2$ , and the pipe ends at the ground level. When the water flows the tanks $1$ and $2$ through the holes, the times taken to empty the tanks are $t_1$ and $t_2$, respectively. If $H=\left(\frac{16}{9}\right) h$, then the ratio $t_1 / t_2$ is. . . . .

The maximum percentage errors in the measurement of mass (M), radius (R) and angular velocity $(\omega)$ of a ring are $2 \%, 1 \%$ and $1 \%$ respectively, then find the maximum percenta? error in the measurement of its moment of inertia $\left(I=\frac{1}{2} M R^{2}\right)$ about its geometric axis.
Particles of masses 2M, m and M are respectively at points A, B and C with AB = ½ (BC). m is muchmuch smaller than M and at time t = 0, they are all at rest.

Two projectiles are projected at $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal with the same speed. The ratio of the maximum height attained by the two projectiles respectively is:
A ball is thrown from the location $\left(x_0, y_0\right)=(0,0)$ of a horizontal playground with an initial speed $v_0$ at an angle $\theta_0$ from the $+x$-direction. The ball is to be hit by a stone, which is thrown at the same time from the location $\left(x_1, y_1\right)=(L, 0)$. The stone is thrown at an angle $\left(180-\theta_1\right)$ from the $+x$-direction with a suitable initial speed. For a fixed $v_0$, when $\left(\theta_0, \theta_1\right)=\left(45^{\circ}, 45^{\circ}\right)$, the stone hits the ball after time $T_1$, and when $\left(\theta_0, \theta_1\right)=\left(60^{\circ}, 30^{\circ}\right)$, it hits the ball after time $T_2$. In such a case, $\left(T_1 / T_2\right)^2$ is. . . . .
