Elongation due to Self Weight in Prismatic Bar using Applied Load Formula Elements

Variables
Elongation
Elongation is defined as the length at breaking point expressed as a percentage of its original length (i.e. length at rest).
Symbol: δl
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Applied Load SOM
The Applied Load SOM is a force imposed on an object by a person or another object.
Symbol: WLoad
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Length
Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Symbol: L
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
