A simply supported uniform rectangular bar breadth b, depth d and length L carries an isolated load W at its mid-span. The same bar experiences an extension e under same tensile load. The ratio of the maximum deflection to the elongation, is Correct Answer $${\left( {\frac{{\text{L}}}{{2{\text{d}}}}} \right)^2}$$
