We have seen above that work done by a force $F$ to produce an extension l in the wire \mathrm{=\frac{1}{2} F \times l}. Thus, the energy gained by the wire

\mathrm{=\frac{1}{2} F \times l=\frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times \left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)=10^{-2} \mathrm{~J}=0.01 \mathrm{~J}}.

Hence the correct choice is (a).
