$A$ string $AB$ of unstretched length $L$ is stretched by applying a force $F$ at the mid-point $C$ such that the segments $AC$ and $BC$ make an angle $\theta$ with $AB$ as shown in the figure. The string may be considered as an elastic element with a force to elongation ratio $K$. The force $F$ is given by

$A$ body of mass $10 \, kg$ is attached to the end of a wire of length $0.3 \, m$. If the breaking stress of the wire is $4.8 \times 10^7 \, N/m^2$ and its cross-sectional area is $10^{-6} \, m^2$,what is the maximum angular velocity in $rad/sec$ with which it can be rotated in a horizontal plane without breaking the wire?

Two blocks of masses $1 \,kg$ and $2 \,kg$ are connected by a metal wire going over a smooth pulley. The breaking stress of metal is $\frac{40}{3 \pi} \times 10^6 \,N m^{-2}$. What should be the minimum radius of the wire used if it should not break (in $mm$)? $(g = 10 \,m s^{-2})$
