$A$ wire of length $L$ and area of cross-section $A$ is made of a material with Young's modulus $Y$. It is stretched by an amount $x$. The work done in stretching the wire is:

Two wires of the same diameter and the same material have lengths $l$ and $2l$. If the same force $F$ is applied to each,what is the ratio of the work done in stretching the two wires?

When a $8 \,m$ long wire is stretched by a load of $10 \,kg-wt$, it is elongated by $1.5 \,mm$. The energy stored in the wire in this process is $\left(g=10 \,ms^{-2}\right)$ (in $\,J$)

On stretching a wire,the elastic energy stored per unit volume is
