A uniform wire of length \(3\) m and mass \(10\) kg is suspended vertically from one end and loaded at another end by a block of mass \(10\) kg. The radius of the cross-section of the wire is \(0.1\) m. The stress in the middle of the wire is: (Take \(g=10\) ms-2)

1. \(1.4 \times10^4\) N/m2 2. \(4.8 \times10^3\) N/m2
3. \(96 \times10^4\) N/m2 4. \(3.5\times10^3\) N/m2
