When a body of mass 5kg is hung from a wire of length 1 m and radius 2mm,the length increases by 0.1 mm, IF the poisson's ratio is 0.4 , what will be the change in the radius of the wire? If the load is reduced to 2kg,how will the radius change?

The radius of a copper wire is twice that of a steel wire. One end of the copper wire is joined with one end of the steel wire and the same tensile force is applied on them . If the length of the copper wire increases by 1% , what will be the percentage increase in the length of the steel wire? Given Young's modulus of steel is twice that of copper.
