If a rod of length l, very small area of cross section A, Young’s modulus of elasticity Y is acted upon by two parallel forces 3F and F respectively (as shown) and placed on a smooth horizontal plane. If the elastic limit is not crossed and then to study the change in length of rod (l) and it’s elastic potential energy (U) the rod is segmented into four equal parts where magnitude of change in lengths arel1, l2, l3, l4  and elastic potential energy stored in each segment are U1, U2, U3, U4 respectively as shown then which is/are correct?
