You do a very precise experiment to test the properties of a piece of wire You stretch the wire by applying an outward force to each end of the wire and measure its change in length If you then precisely double this force and the wire still remains elastic but is beyond proportionality limit the change in length of the wire 1 will exactly double 49 2 will just slightly more than double 3 will just slightly less than double 4 will decrease by exactly a factor of two
