The invention provides a Young modulus measuring method achieved through a
metal wire drawing method, and relates to physical parameter measuring. According to the technical scheme for simplifying Young modulus measuring, the upper end of a
metal wire is fixed, and a tray is fixed to the lower end of the
metal wire; one end of a lever is clamped on the metal wire, a
support point of the lever is fixed to the upper end of a support, and the lever can rotate around the
support point; a cylindrical scale is hung at the
tail end of the lever; a horizontal slender rod stretches out of a fixing platform, and the
tail end of the right side of the horizontal slender rod is in a cylindrical shape and is used as a reading pointer; the
diameter d of the metal wire is measured, the distance L between the fixing point of the lever on the metal wire and the upper end fixing point of the metal wire is measured, the
magnification times n of the lever is measured, the reading number x1 of the scale is
read through the position where the slender rod points, a weight with the
mass of m is added on the tray, the
scale reading number x2 of the position where the slender rod points is read again, and then the Young modulus Y=4 m*g*n*L / (pi*d<2>*|x2-x1|) is obtained, wherein g is the gravity acceleration, and pi is the circumference ratio. The method has the advantages that the cost is reduced, and regulation is convenient.
