A thin rod having a length of $1\; m$ and area of cross-section $3 \times 10^{-6}\,m ^2$ is suspended vertically from one end. The rod is cooled from $210^{\circ}\,C$ to $160^{\circ}\,C$. After cooling, a mass $M$ is attached at the lower end of the rod such that the length of rod again becomes $1\,m$. Young's modulus and coefficient of linear expansion of the rod are $2 \times 10^{11} Nm ^{-2}$ and $2 \times 10^{-5} K ^{-1}$, respectively. The value of $M$ is $.......kg .\left(\right.$ Take $\left.g=10\,m s ^{-2}\right)$
