A brass wire `1.8 m` long at `27^(@)C` is held taut with little tension between two rigid supports. If the wire cooled to a temperature of `-39^(@)C`, what is the tension developed in the wire, if its diameter is `2.0 mm`? Coefficient of linear expansion of brass `= 2.0 xx 10^(-5)//^(@)C`, Young's modulus of brass `= 0.91 xx 10^(11) Pa`.
