One end of the steel rod is clamped to the roof and the other end is attached to a mass of $1000 \,kg$ as shown in the figure. The length of the rod is $50 \,cm$ and its cross-sectional area is $1000 \,mm^2$. The change in the length of the rod due to the weight of the mass is (Young's modulus of steel $= 2 \times 10^{11} \,Nm^{-2}$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,mm$)

In a tensile test on a metal bar of diameter $0.015 \ m$ and length $0.2 \ m$,the relation between the load and elongation within the proportional limit is found to be $F = 97.2 \times 10^6 (\Delta L)$,where $F$ is the load in $N$ and $\Delta L$ is the elongation in $m$. The Young's modulus of the material in $GPa$ is:

$A$ uniform dense rod with non-uniform Young's modulus is hanging from the ceiling under gravity. If the elastic energy density at every point is the same,then how will Young's modulus change with $x$ as shown in the graphs?
