The length of a rod is $20 \, cm$ and the area of cross-section is $2 \, cm^2$. The Young's modulus of the material of the rod is $1.4 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$. If the rod is compressed by a force of $5 \, kg-wt$ along its length,then the increase in the elastic potential energy of the rod in joules will be:

The work done per unit volume in stretching a wire is :-

$A$ copper wire of length $3 \text{ m}$ is stretched by $3 \text{ mm}$ by applying an external force. The volume of the wire is $600 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}^3$. The elastic potential energy stored in the wire in the stretched condition is . . . . . . $\text{J}$. (Given Young's modulus of copper $Y = 1.1 \times 10^{11} \text{ N/m}^2$)
