    As shown in the schematic below, a rod of uniform cross-sectional area $A$ and length $l$ is carrying a constant current $i$ through it and voltage across the rod is measured using an ideal voltmeter. The rod is stretched by the application of a force $F$. Which of the following graphs would show the variation in the voltage across the rod as function of the strain $\varepsilon$ when the strain is small. Neglect Joule heating.
