$A$ brass rod of cross-sectional area $1 \, cm^2$ and length $0.2 \, m$ is compressed lengthwise by a weight of $5 \, kg$. If Young's modulus of elasticity of brass is $1 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $g = 10 \, m/s^2$,then the increase in the energy of the rod will be:

  • A
    $10^{-5} \, J$
  • B
    $2.5 \times 10^{-5} \, J$
  • C
    $5 \times 10^{-5} \, J$
  • D
    $2.5 \times 10^{-4} \, J$
