A thin `1m` long rod has a radius of `5mm`. A force of `50pi KN` is applied at one end to determine its Young's modulus Assume that the force is exactly known. If the least count in the measurement of all lengths is `0.01mm` which of the following statements is false ?

A

`(Delta Y)/(Y)` gets minimum contribution from the uncetainty in the length

B

The figure of ment is the largest for the length of the rod

C

`(Delta Y)/(Y)` gets its maximum contribution from the uncertainty in strain

D

The maximum value of Y that can be determined is `10^(14) N//m^(2)`
