In an experiment for measurement of young's modulus, following readings are taken. Load = 3.00 kg, length = 2.820 m, diameter = 0.041 cm and extension = 0.87. We shell determine the percentage error in measurement of Y.

Explanation

To determine the percentage error in the measurement of Young's modulus (Y), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the formula for Young's Modulus
Young's modulus (Y) is defined as the ratio of stress to strain:
\[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} \]
Where:
- Stress = \( \frac{F}{A} \) (Force per unit area)
- Strain = \( \frac{\Delta L}{L_0} \) (Change in length per original length)
