If the given graph shows the load $(W)$ attached to and the elongation $(\Delta l)$ produced in a wire of length $1 \,m$ and area of cross-section $1 \,mm^2$, then the Young's modulus of the material of the wire is

$A$ uniform steel rod of mass $1.8 \,kg$ and length $0.8 \,m$ is hung from a nail with the help of two steel wires,each of area of cross-section $0.01 \,mm^2$ and unstretched length $0.5 \,m$,as shown in the figure.
