$A$ steel and a brass wire, each of length $50 \,cm$ and cross-sectional area $0.005 \,cm^{2}$, hang from a ceiling and are $15 \,cm$ apart. Lower ends of the wires are attached to a light horizontal bar. $A$ suitable downward load is applied to the bar so that each of the wires extends in length by $0.1 \,cm$. At what distance from the steel wire must the load be applied (in $\,cm$)? [Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{12} \,dynes/cm^{2}$ and that of brass is $1 \times 10^{12} \,dynes/cm^{2}$]
