A student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly 2 m long, by Searle's method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be O.8 mm with an uncertainty of 0.05 mm at a load of exactly 1.0 kg.The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be 0.4 mm with an uncertainty of 0.01 mm.Take g =9.8 m/sexact.The Young's modulus obtained from the reading is
  1. 2.00.3101N/m
  2. 2.00.210N/m
  3. 2.00.1101N/m²
