Which of the following is wrong regarding Searle's apparatus method in finding Young's modulus of a given wire?
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
In Searle's method only the experimental wire carries the varying load; the reference wire is kept just taut under a fixed load.
Measuring elongation by increasing the load on both wires defeats the reference arrangement, so statement (D) is wrong.
