Detailed Solution

$Y = \frac{FL}{Ae} = \frac{FL}{{πr}^{2} e} \Rightarrow e \propto \frac{L}{r^{2}}$

$\Rightarrow e_{1} \propto \frac{100}{1^{2}} \Rightarrow e_{1} \propto = 100$

$\Rightarrow e_{2} \propto \frac{200}{3^{2}} \Rightarrow e_{2} \propto \frac{100}{4.5}$

$\Rightarrow e_{3} \propto \frac{300}{3^{2}} \Rightarrow e_{3} \propto \frac{100}{3}$

$\Rightarrow e_{2} \propto \frac{50}{0 . 5^{2}} \Rightarrow e_{2} \propto 200$
