    Two metallic wires $P$ and $Q$ have same volume and are made up of same material. If their area of cross sections are in the ratio $4: 1$ and force $F_1$ is applied to $\mathrm{P}$, an extension of $\Delta l$ is produced. The force which is required to produce same extension in $Q$ is $\mathrm{F}_2$.The value of $\frac{\mathrm{F}_1}{\mathrm{~F}_2}$ is__________.
