$A$ brass wire of length $2 \ m$ and radius $1 \ mm$ at $27 ^\circ C$ is held taut between two rigid supports. Initially, it was cooled to a temperature of $-43 ^\circ C$, creating a tension $T$ in the wire. The temperature to which the wire has to be cooled in order to increase the tension in it to $1.4 \ T$ is . . . . . . $^\circ C$.
