Homework Statement
What s wrong if there is something wrong .
Relevant Equations
Stress over strain
Handwritten working titled Young's Modulus: area A = πr² with r = 0.025 m giving A = 0.001963 m²; stress = F/A = 200 000 / 0.001963 = 101,910,828 N/m²; Young's modulus = stress/strain = 101,910,828 / 0.0031 = 3.287446065 × 10^10.

Some one knows if its ok like this the answers?

Hard to say since you do not state the actual question. Inferring the question from your working, it looks right except that you quote far too many digits. The data you are given are only to two significant figures, so that's how your answer should be.

So must be 3.2 x 10 to the power of 18 ?
No, 3.28... would round to 3.3, not 3.2. And where did the 18 come from? You had 1010.
