Step 1
We can see in option 1:
The uncertainty is in hundredth part (because0.02) therefore writing number beyond 100th place is meaningless.
Therefore first option is incorrect.
similarly we can see 2nd and 4th options are also incorrect.

- An object is released from rest and falls in free fall motion. The speed v of the object after it has fallen a distance y is given by v2 = 2gy. In an experiment, v and y are measured and the measured values are used to calculate g.
