$A$ $500 \,g$ ball is attached to one end of an aluminum wire of area of cross-section $0.5 \,mm^2$ and an unstretched length of $1.4 \,m$. The other end of the wire is fixed to the top of a vertical pole. The ball rotates about the pole in a horizontal plane such that the angle between the wire and the horizontal is $30^{\circ}$. The increase in the length of the wire is . . . . . . $mm$. (Young's modulus of aluminum $= 0.7 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$)

$A$ student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire of length $2 \, m$ using Searle's method. In an observation,for a load of $10 \, kg$,the extension of the wire is measured as $0.88 \, mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.05 \, mm$. The student also measures the diameter of the wire as $0.4 \, mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01 \, mm$. Take $g = 9.8 \, m/s^2$ (exact). Calculate the Young's modulus of the wire.
