@All.

Here, it will act like a self-weight of the bar so, the strain energy should be W^2L/6AE.

Thanks @Abhi @Lalit.

Strain energy formula = {( sigma) ^2/(2E) }*Volume.
= {( sigma) ^2/(2E) }*A*L.
= {(W/A) ^2/(2E) }*A*E.
== {W^2L/(2AE) }.

Thanks @Abhi.

Deformation = WL/AE.

Strain Energy = 1/2 x W x Deformation.

Therefore W2L/2AE.

It is 1/2*W*WL/AE.
