One end of the steel rod is clamped to the roof and the other end is attached to a mass of $1000 \,kg$ as shown in the figure. The length of the rod is $50 \,cm$ and its cross-sectional area is $1000 \,mm^2$. The change in the length of the rod due to the weight of the mass is (Young's modulus of steel $= 2 \times 10^{11} \,Nm^{-2}$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,mm$)
