You are given three wires $  \mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}  $ and $ \mathrm{C}  $ of the same length and cross section. They are each stretched by applying the same force to the ends. The wire A is stretched least comes back to its original length when the stretching force is removed. The wire $  B  $ is stretched more than $  A  $ and also comes back to its original length when the stretching force is removed. The wire C is stretched most and remains stretched even when the stretching force is removed. The greatest Young's modulus of elasticity is possessed by the material of a wire
