Suggested Answer
A wire is capable of carrying a load W without snapping. It is divided in half, equally. Each component's maximum load capacity is W.The maximum load supported by the cable is directly proportional to the breaking stress.Since,Breaking stress=F/Awhere F is the force and A is the cross-sectional area As we see that the breaking stress is independent of the length of the cable. So, if the cable is cut in two equal parts, the maximum load that can be supported by either part of the cable remains the same as before. So, the answer would be W.To learn more about elasticity refer to:https://brainly.com/question/27898534
