Question

In order to determine the Young's Modulus of a wire of radius 0.2 cm (measured using a scale of least count $=0.001 \mathrm{~cm}$ ) and length 1 m (measured using a scale of least count $=1 \mathrm{~mm}$ ), a weight of mass 1 kg (measured using a scale of least count $=1 \mathrm{~g}$ ) 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?\
