The adjacent graph shows the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\, m$ suspended from the top of a roof at one end and with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-6}\, m^2$,calculate the Young's modulus of the material of the wire.

$A$ meter scale of mass $m$,Young's modulus $Y$,and cross-sectional area $A$ is hung vertically from the ceiling at the zero mark. The separation between the $30\ cm$ and $70\ cm$ marks will be: (Assume $\frac{mg}{AY}$ is dimensionless)

The dimensional formula for Young's modulus is

$A$ load of $1 \,kg$ weight is attached to one end of a steel wire of area of cross-section $3 \,mm^2$ and Young's modulus $10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The other end is suspended vertically from a hook on a wall, then the load is pulled horizontally and released. When the load passes through its lowest position, the fractional change in length is $(g = 10 \,m/s^2)$.
