One end of uniform wire of length \(L\) and of weight \(W\) is attached rigidly to a point in a roof and a weight \(W_1\) is suspended from the lower end. If \(A\) is area of cross-section of the wire, the stress in the wire at a height \(3L \over 4\) from its lower end is:
1. \(W_1 \over A\)
2. \(\frac{\left(W_1+\frac{W}{4}\right)}{A} \)
