In constructing a large mobile, Jude hangs an aluminum sphere of mass 6.0kg from a vertical steel wire 0.50m long and 2.5 x10^−3 cm^2 in cross-sectional area. On the bottom of the sphere, he attaches a similar steel wire, from which he hangs a brass cube of mass 10.0kg. For each wire, compute: (a) The tensile strain and (b) The elongation
