In an experiment to determine the Young's modulus,steel wires of five different lengths $(1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5\,m)$ but of same cross-section $(2\,mm^2)$ were taken and curves between extension and load were obtained. The slope $(\text{extension/load})$ of the curves were plotted with the wire length and the following graph is obtained. If the Young's modulus of given steel wires is $x \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$,then the value of $x$ is

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $23$
  • D
    $21$
