    A string of area of cross-section $4\,mm ^{2}$ and length $0.5$ is connected with a rigid body of mass $2\,kg$. The body is rotated in a vertical circular path of radius $0.5\,m$. The body acquires a speed of $5\,m / s$ at the bottom of the circular path. Strain produced in the string when the body is at the bottom of the circle is $\ldots . . \times 10^{-5}$. (Use Young's modulus $10^{11}\,N / m ^{2}$ and $g =10\,m / s ^{2}$ )
