In the experiment to determine the Young's modulus of the material of a wire under tension used in the arrangement as shown the percentage error in the measurement of length is a, in the measurement of the radius of the wire is b and in the measurement of the change in length of the wireis C. Percentage error in the measurement of Young's modulus for a given load is

Answer»

`a-2 b+c`
`a-2 b-c`
`a+2 b+c`
`a+2 b`

SOLUTION :`Y =(F)/(PI R^(2))xx(l)/(Delta l)`
TAKING log of both the sides
`log Y = log F + log l - log pi - 2 log r - log Delta l`
Differentiating it, we have
`(Delta Y)/(Y)=0 +(Delta l)/(l) - 0 -(2Delta r)/(r) - (Delta l)/(Delta l)`
% ERROR, `(Delta Y)/(Y)xx100= ((Delta l)/(l) + (2Delta r)/(r) + (Delta(Delta l))/(Delta l))xx100`
`=a + 2b + c`
