$A$ tension of $22 ~N$ is applied to a copper wire of cross-sectional area $0.02 ~cm^2$. The Young's modulus of copper is $1.1 \times 10^{11} ~N/m^2$ and the Poisson's ratio is $0.32$. The decrease in cross-sectional area will be:

  • A
    $1.28 \times 10^{-6} ~cm^2$
  • B
    $1.6 \times 10^{-6} ~cm^2$
  • C
    $2.56 \times 10^{-6} ~cm^2$
  • D
    $0.64 \times 10^{-6} ~cm^2$
