$A$ wire $PQ$ has length $4.8 \ m$ and mass $0.06 \ kg$. Another wire $QR$ has length $2.56 \ m$ and mass $0.2 \ kg$. Both wires have the same radii and are joined as a single wire. This wire is under a tension of $80 \ N$. $A$ wave pulse of amplitude $3.5 \ cm$ is sent along the wire $PQ$ from end $P$. The time taken by the wave to reach the other end of the single wire is (No power is dissipated during propagation). (in $s$)
