    The graph shown in the figure gives the extension Δl of a wire of original length 1 m as a function of the applied load W. The wire has cross-sectional area 10⁻⁵ m². From the graph, an increase of 10 N in load produces an increase of 1 × 10⁻⁴ m in extension. What is the Young's modulus of the wire?
