$A$ wire is suspended by one end. At the other end,a weight equivalent to $20\, N$ force is applied. If the increase in length is $1.0\, mm$,the ratio of the increase in energy of the wire to the decrease in gravitational potential energy when the load moves downwards by $1\, mm$ will be:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $1/4$
  • C
    $1/3$
  • D
    $1/2$
