Solution

The elongation will be equal to the original length of the material. This is because stress is defined as the force per unit area, and Young's modulus is a measure of the ability of a material to withstand changes in length when under lengthwise tension or compression. If stress is numerically equal to Young's modulus, it means that the force applied is causing a change in length that is equal to the original length. Therefore, the elongation (change in length) will be equal to the original length.
