In order to determine the Young's Modulus of a wire of radius $0.2\, cm$ (measured using a scale of least count $=0.001\, cm )$ and length $1 \,m$ (measured using a scale of least count $=1\, mm$ ), a weight of mass $1\, kg$ (measured using a scale of least count $=1 \,g$ ) was hanged to get the elongation of $0.5\, cm$ (measured using a scale of least count $0.001\, cm$ ). What will be the fractional error in the value of Young's Modulus determined by this experiment? (in $\%$)
  • A$0.14$
  • B$0.9$
  • C$9$

    A length-scale $(l)$ depends on the permittivity $(\varepsilon)$ of a dielectric material. Boltzmann constant $\left(k_B\right)$, the absolute temperature $(T)$, the number per unit volune $(n)$ of certain charged particles, and the charge $(q)$ carried by each of the particless. Which of the following expression($s$) for $l$ is(are) dimensionally correct?

    ($A$) $l=\sqrt{\left(\frac{n q^2}{\varepsilon k_B T}\right)}$

    ($B$) $l=\sqrt{\left(\frac{\varepsilon k_B T}{n q^2}\right)}$
