Number of oscillations = 20
        Time to take 20 oscillation =25 sec
        Time Period = time taken/ number of oscillation
                             = 25/20
                             = 1.25 sec
Least count of watch is = 0.2 sec
In the estimation of era 1.25s , the measuring watch can gauge upto 0.2 however the vulnerability stays 0.05 
  • (0.05/1.25)* 100
  • 4%
