In searle's experiment, the diameter of the wire, as measured by a screw gauge of least count 0.001 cm is 0.500 cm. The length, measured by a scale of least count 0.1cm is 110.0cm. When a weight of 40N is suspended from the wire, its extension is measured to be 0.125 cm by a micrometer of least count 0.001 cm. Find the Young's modulus of the meterial of the wire from this data.
