wire of length I has a ear mass density lambda and area of cross-section A and the Young's modulus y is suspended vertically from rigid support. The extension produced in wire due to its own weight

The breaking stress of the material of a wire is 6xx10^(6)Nm^(-2) Then density rho of the material is 3xx10^(3)kgm^(-3) . If the wire is to break under its own weight, the length (in metre) of the wire made of that material should be (take g=10ms^(-2) )
