A 100 \; m long wire having cross-sectional area 6.25 \times 10^{-4}m^{2} and Young's modulus is 10^{10}Nm^{-2}  subjected to a load of 250\; N, then the elongation in the wire will be:
Option: 1 4 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}
Option: 2 6.25 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m}
Option: 3 6.25 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}
Option: 4 4 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}

\begin{aligned} & \text { Stress }=\mathrm{y} \text { strain } \Rightarrow \frac{W}{\mathrm{~A}}=\mathrm{y} \frac{\Delta \ell}{\ell} \\ & \Delta \ell=\frac{\mathrm{W} \ell}{\mathrm{yA}} \Rightarrow \Delta \ell=\frac{250 \times 100}{10^{10} \times 6.25 \times 10^{-4}} \\ & \Delta \ell=4 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \end{aligned}
