To determine the young's modulus of a wire , the formula is ` Y = (F)/( A) . (L)/ ( Delta l)` , where `L` = l ength ,` A` = area of cross - section of the wire , `DeltaL` = change in the length of the wire when streched with a force `F`. Find the conversion factor to change it from CGS t o MKS system.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Y=F/A . L/(DeltaL)=("dyne")/(cm^(2))=(10^(-5)N)/(10^(-4)m^(2))=0.1N//m^(2)`
