Wires $A$ and $B$ are connected with blocks $P$ and $Q$ as shown. The ratio of lengths, radii and Young's modulus of wires $A$ and $B$ are $r, 2r$ and $3r$ respectively ($r$ is a constant). Find the mass of block $P$ if ratio of increase in their corresponding lengths is $1/6r^2$. The mass of block $Q$ is $3M$.
