This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

t1=39.6s, t2=39.9s and t3=39.5s

Least count of measuring instrument =0.1s

Precision in the measurement =least count of the measuring instrument =0.1s

So mean value of 20 observation

Mean value of t= t 1 + t 2 + t 3 3 = 39.6 + 39.9 + 39.5 3 = 39.7 s

Absolute error in

 t1= t-t1 = 39.7-39
