$A$ wire of cross-sectional area $A$,modulus of elasticity $2 \times 10^{11} \text{ N m}^{-2}$,and length $2L = 2 \text{ m}$ is stretched between two vertical rigid supports. When a mass of $2 \text{ kg}$ is suspended at the middle,it sags from its original position,making an angle $\theta = \frac{1}{100} \text{ radian}$ with the horizontal at the points of support. The value of $A$ is . . . . . . $\times 10^{-4} \text{ m}^2$. (Given: $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)
