- **Two rods** : $l_0$ = initial length , $\Delta$ l: extension
- Case 1. Same initial length, but different extension same area of cross section.
- Case 2. Same initial length, but different cross section area A and same extension.
- Case 3. Different initial length, but same extension same area of cross section.
