\frac{m g}{A}=\text { maximum breaking stress. }

or \ \frac{(A l \rho) g}{A}=\sigma_{\max } \\ \therefore \quad l_{\text {max }}=\frac{\sigma_{\text {max }}}{\rho g}

\begin{aligned} l_{\max }=\frac{10^6}{\left(3 \times 10^3\right) 10} & =3.33 \times 10^{\circ} \\ & =3.33 \mathrm{~m} \end{aligned}
