The diagram shows a force-extension graph for a rubber band. Consider the following statements

$I.$ It will be easier to compress this rubber than expand it

$II.$ Rubber does not return to its original length after it is stretched

Which of these can be deduced from the graph

The adjacent graph shows the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\, m$ suspended from the top of a roof at one end and with a load $W$   connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-6}\, m^2$, calculate the Young’s modulus of the material of the wire.
