$A$ composite heavy rope made of two materials is suspended vertically from a high ceiling. The ratios of different quantities for the upper rope to the lower rope are: length $\frac{L_u}{L_l} = \frac{1}{2}$,cross-sectional area $\frac{A_u}{A_l} = \frac{2}{1}$,and density $\frac{d_u}{d_l} = \frac{2}{3}$. What is the ratio of the maximum stress in the two ropes?
