A wire is stretched by a force such that its length becomes double. How will the Youngs modulus of the wire be affected?explain in detail.

Consider a wire of length l and cross sectional area A stretched by a force F through a distance Δl.
Then expression for Young's Modulus is given as :-
Y= FlAΔl  ..........(1)  
According to question, Δl = 2l
Then, Young's Modulus (Y)= F2A
