During Searle's experiment, zero of the Vernier scale lies betweenandof the main scale. Thedivision of the Vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. When an additional load of 2 kg is applied to the wire, the zero of the Vernier scale still lies betweenandof the main scale but now thedivision of Vernier scale coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The length of the thin metallic wire is 2 m and its cross-sectional area is. The least count of the Vernier scale is. The maximum percentage error in the Young's modulus of the wire is
Answer:
4
Solution:
since the experiment measures only change in the length of wire
From the observation
change in lengths
and the maximum permissible error in elongation is one LC
