A steet wire of length 4.7 m and cross - sectional area 3.0xx10^(-5)m^(2) stretches by the same amount as a copper wire of length 3.5 m and cross- sectional area of 4.0xx10^(-5)m^(2) under a given load. What is the ratio of the Young's modulus of steel to that of copper ?

During Searle's experiment, zero of the Vernier sacle lies between 3.20 xx 10^(-2), and 3.25 xx 10^(-2)m of the main scale. The 20^(th) division of the Vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. When an additional load of 2kg is applied to the wire, the zero of the vernier scale still lies between 3.20 xx 10^(-2), and 3.25 xx 10^(-2)m of the main scale but now the 45^(th) division of Vernier scale coincide with one of the main scale divisions. the length of the thin metallic wire is 2m and its cross-sectional ares is 8 xx 10^(-7)m^(2) . the least count of the Vernier scale is 1.0 xx 10^(-5)m . the maximum percentage error in the Young's modulus of the wire is
