Young’s modulus experimental determination

The experiment which is used to determine Young's modulus of the material of a given wire, is
Resonance tube experiment
Displacement method
Searle's experiment
Young's double slit experiment

Solution:

Searle's apparatus/experiment is specifically designed and used to determine the Young's modulus of elasticity of a metal wire by measuring elongation under load.
