An object of mass $15 \,kg$ is attached to the end of a metal wire of unstretched length $1.0 \,m$. The object is then whirled in a vertical circle with an angular velocity of $4 \,rad/s$ at the bottom of the circle. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.05 \,cm^2$ and Young's modulus of the metal is $2 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$, then calculate the elongation of the wire when the mass is at the lowest point of its path. (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,mm$)

  • A
    $0.27$
  • B
    $0.39$
  • C
    $0.55$
  • D
    $0.25$
