A rod of length $20$ mm is stretched to make a rod of length $40$ mm. Subsequently, it is compressed to make a rod of final length $10$ mm. Consider the longitudinal tensile strain as positive and compressive strain as negative. The total true longitudinal strain in the rod is $-0.5$ $-0.69$ $-0.75$ $-1.0$
