Young Modulus Apparatus Searles Pattern
Product Code : JA-PLE-4207
The Young Modulus Apparatus Searles Pattern (SKU JA-PLE-4207) is used to determine the Young's modulus of the material of a wire by Searle's method. Two iron frames hang from a test wire and a reference wire, and the extension of the loaded wire is read with a micrometer screw and a sensitive spirit level. This Searle's apparatus for Young's modulus is a standard item for class 11-12 and B.Sc elasticity practicals.
Specifications
The apparatus has two iron frames connected by a link and fitted with self-centring chucks, a micrometer screw reading to 0.01 mm with a 0-10 mm main scale on one frame, and a spirit level pivoted on one frame and resting on the micrometer point on the other.

Applications of Searle's apparatus for Young's modulus
As loads are added to the test wire its frame moves down relative to the reference frame, tilting the spirit level; turning the micrometer until the bubble is central again gives the extension to 0.01 mm, from which Young's modulus is calculated.

Frequently asked questions
What is the least count of the micrometer?
The micrometer screw reads to 0.01 mm, with a main scale of 0-10 mm.
How is the extension of the wire detected?
A sensitive spirit level pivoted on one frame rests on the micrometer point on the other frame; the micrometer is turned to re-level it after each load.
Are wires and weights included?
Test wires, hangers and slotted weights are not in the listed items and can be quoted separately.
