$A$ copper wire of length $2.4 \ m$ and an aluminum wire of length $0.7 \ m$, both having diameter $2 \ mm$, are connected end to end. When stretched by a load, the total elongation is found to be $0.6 \ mm$. The applied load is (Young's modulus of copper $= 1.2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$ and Young's modulus of aluminum $= 0.7 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$). (in $\pi \ N$)
