A light rod of length 200 cm is suspended from the ceiling horizontally by means of two vertical wires of equal length tied to its end. One of the wires is made of steel and has area of cross-section 0.1 cm2 and the other of brass of cross-sectional area 0.2 cm2. An object of mass m is hung to the rod. Ysteel =2×Ybrass
