    In an experiment of determine the Young's modulus of wire of a length exactly $1\; m$, the extension in the length of the wire is measured as $0.4\,mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.02\,mm$ when a load of $1\,kg$ is applied. The diameter of the wire is measured as $0.4\,mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01\,mm$. The error in the measurement of Young's modulus $(\Delta Y)$ is found to be $x \times 10^{10}\,Nm ^{-2}$. The value of $x$ is
