Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Stress is proportional to the strain, within elastic limit (Hooke's law limit).
Statement II: The energy stored locally in an elastic body, when it is under stress (within Hooke's law limit), is proportional to the product of the stress and the strain.
 
1. Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct.
2. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
4. Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect.
