    The document describes calculations for determining the Young's modulus of three materials - brass, aluminium, and mild steel - through a pure bending experiment. It provides the length, deflection, radius of curvature, applied moment, second moment of area, and calculated Young's modulus for each material. Graphs of deflection versus Young's modulus were plotted with slopes corresponding to the theoretical Young's modulus values of 105 GPa for brass, 70 GPa for aluminium, and 200 GPa for mild steel. Sources of error in the experiment are also listed.

    Errors
    There were several errors that happened during the experiment is conducted :
    1.The beam already bend and have some deflection before the experiment is done.
    2.The gauge is very sensitive since even a little disruption to the beam caused a big deflection to
    the reading.
    3.The weight is already rusting thus the mass of the weight is not exactly 1N each.
    4.Parallax error, the eyes in not parallel to the scale reading.
