$A$ $14.5\; kg$ mass,fastened to the end of a steel wire of unstretched length $1.0\; m$,is whirled in a vertical circle with an angular velocity of $2\; rev/s$ at the bottom of the circle. The cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.065\; cm^2$. Calculate the elongation of the wire when the mass is at the lowest point of its path.

  • A
    $7.341 \times 10^{-5}\; m$
  • B
    $3.985 \times 10^{-3}\; m$
  • C
    $5.697 \times 10^{-5}\; m$
  • D
    $1.539 \times 10^{-4}\; m$
