A wire of length $L,$ area of cross section $A$ is hanging from a fixed support. The length of the wire changes to $L_{1}$ when mass $M$ is suspended from its free end. The expression for Young's modulus is 
  • A$\frac{ MgL }{ A \left( L _{1}- L \right)}$
  • B$\frac{ MgL _{1}}{ AL }$
  • C$\frac{ Mg \left( L _{1}- L \right)}{ AL }$
  • D$\frac{ MgL }{ AL _{1}}$
