Physics Question on mechanical properties of solids
In the Searle's method to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, a steel wire of length 156 cm and diameter 0.054 cm is taken as experimental wire. The average increase in length for 121 kg wt is found to be 0.05.cm. Then the Young's modulus of the wire
