The measured value of the length of a simple pendulum is $20 \mathrm{~cm}$ with $2 \mathrm{~mm}$ accuracy. The time for $50$ oscillations was measured to be $40$ seconds with $1$ second resolution. From these measurements, the accuracy in the measurement of acceleration due to gravity is $\mathrm{N} \%$. The value of $\mathrm{N}$ is:

A student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly $2 \mathrm{~m}$ long, by Searle's method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be $0.8 \mathrm{~mm}$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.05 \mathrm{~mm}$ at a load of exactly $1.0 \mathrm{~kg}$. The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be $0.4 \mathrm{~mm}$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01 \mathrm{~mm}$. Take $g=9.8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ (exact). The Young's modulus obtained from the reading is
