Young's modulus of the material of a wire is `9.8 x 10^10 N/m^2` and the area of cross-section of the wire is 0.012 `cm^2`. Elastic limit of the material of the wire is exceeded when the strain exceeds `1/2400` . Find the maximum load that can be used to stretch the wire without causing a permanent set.
