Two uniform rods $AB$ and $BC$ have Young's moduli $1.2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $1.5 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ respectively. If the coefficient of linear expansion of $AB$ is $1.5 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ}C$ and both have equal area of cross-section,then the coefficient of linear expansion of $BC$,for which there is no shift of the junction at all temperatures,is ............. $\times 10^{-5} /^{\circ}C$.

Young's moduli of two wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $7 : 4$. Wire $A$ is $2\, m$ long and has radius $R$. Wire $B$ is $1.5\, m$ long and has radius $2\, mm$. If the two wires stretch by the same length for a given load,then the value of $R$ is close to ......... $mm$.

In the determination of Young's modulus $\left(Y=\frac{4 MLg}{\pi \ell d^2}\right)$ by using Searle's method,a wire of length $L=2 \ m$ and diameter $d=0.5 \ mm$ is used. For a load $M=2.5 \ kg$,an extension $\ell=0.25 \ mm$ in the length of the wire is observed. Quantities $d$ and $\ell$ are measured using a screw gauge and a micrometer,respectively. They have the same pitch of $0.5 \ mm$. The number of divisions on their circular scale is $100$. The contributions to the maximum probable error of the $Y$ measurement:
