* Graph showing the relationship of torsion on deflection angle :

2) Determination of the torsion modulus D τ based on the graph
π
Using the above graph, we can see that the “best fit” line passes through the points ( 18 ; 0.07 4)
π
and ( 6 ; 0. 189)

Δτ 0. 189−0.0 74 N .m

We can now measure the line that has the highest slope and the lowest slope that pass through
or near the error bars.
+¿ ¿ N .m
The highest possible slope is Δ D τ = 0 . 352( rad )

N .m
The lowest possible slope is Δ D τ = 0.3 06( rad )

*Calculation of average value and absolute error of T

Hence:
T =0.998 ± 0.002(s )
