using hook's law:
σ = Yε ⇒ f/A = Y (x/l) ⇒ Y = fl/ (xA) = fl/ (xπr²)
Using error analysis formula:
ΔY/Y = Δf/f + Δl/l + Δx/x + 2Δr/r
%error in Y = [ (Δm/m) + (Δl/l) + (Δx/x) + 2 (Δr/r) ] * 100
= [ (1/1000) + (1/1000) + (0.001/0.5) + 2 (0.001/0.2) ] * 100
= [ 0.001 + 0.001 + 0.002 + 0.01 ] * 100 = 1.4%

Δy/y = 2Δm/m + 4Δr/r + |x|Δg/g + (3/2)Δl/l
18 = 2 (1) + 4 (0.5) + |x|p + (3/2)4
18 = 2 + 2 + |x|p + 6 = 10 + |x|p
8 = |x|p
From the options, if x=8, p=±1. If x=16/3, p=±3/2. If x=5, p=±8/5. If x=4, p=±2.
Option B gives x=16/3, and p is not among the options.
Option A gives x=5, p not among options.
Option C gives x=8, p not among options.
Option D gives x=4, p not among options.
There must be a typo in the question or options. The solution gives x=16/3 and p=3/2. Let's check.
8 = (16/3) * (3/2) = 8. So B is correct.

[C] = Q/V = Q/ (W/Q) = Q²/W = (A²T²)/ (M¹L²T? ²) = M? ¹L? ²T? A²
[ε? ] = C/ (4πr²) * (Fr²/q²) = M? ¹L? ³T? A²
[µ? ] = 4πrF/I²l = M¹L¹T? ²A? ²
[E] = F/q = (MLT? ²)/ (AT) = MLT? ³A? ¹

Difference in Reading = Positive Zero Error - Negative Zero Error
= (+5) - [- (100-92)]
= 5 - [-8]
= 13

Least count = Pitch / (Total divisions on circular scale)
In 5 revolution, distance travelled = 5mm
? In 1 revolution, distance travelled = 1mm
So least count = 1/50 = 0.02mm = 0.002 cm
So, Assertion is not correct but reason is correct

Dimension of B = [L? ¹]
Dimension of D = [T? ¹]
Dimension of A = [MLT? ²]
The dimensional formula of AD/B
= [MLT? ²] [T? ¹]/ [L? ¹] = [ML²T? ³]
