A steel wire 2 m long and 3 mm in diameter is extended by 0.75 mm when a weight P is suspended from the wire. If the same weight is suspended from a brass wire, 2.5 m long and 2 mm in diameter, it is elongated by 4.64 mm. Determine the modulus of elasticity of brass if that of steel be 2.0 x 10^5 N/mm2.
