The figure shows two creates that are connected by a steel wire that passes over a pulley. The unstretched length of the wire is 1.5 m, and its cross - sectional area is `1.3xx10^(-5)m^(2)`. The pulley is frictionless and massless. When the crates are accelerating, determine the change in length of the wire. Ignore the mass of the wire.
