If the force constant of a wire is $K$,the work done in increasing the length of the wire by $l$ is

$A$ uniform metal rod of $2\, mm^2$ cross-section fixed between two walls is heated from $0\,^oC$ to $20\,^oC$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the rod is $12 \times 10^{-6}/^oC$. Its Young's modulus of elasticity is $10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The energy stored per unit volume of the rod will be ....... $J/m^3$.

$A$ wire of length $1 \, m$ and Young's modulus $Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ is fixed between two rigid supports. If its temperature is increased by $100 ^\circ C$,what is the energy stored in the wire? (Given: $\alpha = 18 \times 10^{-6} \, ^\circ C^{-1}$,$A = 1 \, cm^2$)

Two wires of the same material and length but diameters in the ratio $1:2$ are stretched by the same force. The elastic potential energy per unit volume for the wires,when stretched by the same force,will be in the ratio: (in $:1$)
