Question 2

A student performs an experiment to determine the Young’s modulus of a wire, exactly 2 m long, by Searle’s method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be 0.8 mm with an uncertainty of $$\pm 0.05$$ mm at load of exactly 1.0 kg. The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be 0.4 mm with an uncertainty of $$\pm 0.01$$ mm. Take g = 9.8 m/s$$^2$$ (exact). The Young’s modulus obtained from the reading is
