The area of cross-section of a steel wire $(Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2)$ is $0.1 \ cm^2$. The force required to double its length will be

$A$ thin rod having a length of $1\;m$ and area of cross-section $3 \times 10^{-6}\;m^2$ is suspended vertically from one end. The rod is cooled from $210^{\circ}C$ to $160^{\circ}C$. After cooling,a mass $M$ is attached at the lower end of the rod such that the length of the rod again becomes $1\;m$. Young's modulus and coefficient of linear expansion of the rod are $2 \times 10^{11}\;Nm^{-2}$ and $2 \times 10^{-5}\;K^{-1}$,respectively. The value of $M$ is $.......kg$. (Take $g=10\;ms^{-2}$)
