The external force or tension (F) acting on the wire is its own weight. It is given by
F===mg4kg×410ms−210N
The formula to calculate the Young's modulus of the material of the wire is given by
Y==LΔLAFΔLAFL..........................(1)
where, A is the cross-sectional area, L is the original length and ΔL is the elongation of the wire.
Substitute the given values of the known parameters into equation (1) and solve to calculate the required elongation of the wire.
