During Searle's experiment,the zero of the Vernier scale lies between $3.20 \times 10^{-2} \text{ m}$ and $3.25 \times 10^{-2} \text{ m}$ of the main scale. The $20^{\text{th}}$ division of the Vernier scale exactly coincides with one of the main scale divisions. When an additional load of $2 \text{ kg}$ is applied to the wire,the zero of the Vernier scale still lies between $3.20 \times 10^{-2} \text{ m}$ and $3.25 \times 10^{-2} \text{ m}$ of the main scale,but now the $45^{\text{th}}$ division of the Vernier scale coincides with one of the main scale divisions. The length of the thin metallic wire is $2 \text{ m}$ and its cross-sectional area is $8 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m}^2$. The least count of the Vernier scale is $1.0 \times 10^{-5} \text{ m}$. The maximum percentage error in the Young's modulus of the wire is:

The distance $s$ travelled by a particle in time $t$ is $s = ut - \frac{1}{2} gt^2$. The initial velocity of the particle was measured to be $u = 1.11 \pm 0.01 \, m/s$ and the time interval of the experiment was $t = 1.01 \pm 0.1 \, s$. The acceleration was taken to be $g = 9.8 \pm 0.1 \, m/s^2$. With these measurements,the student estimates the total distance travelled. How should the student report the result?
