The electric potential difference across a wire is constant. If l, A and rho are respectively the length, area of cross-section and resistivity of the material of the wire, then the rate of heat proudction in the resistor is

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.
