A small object \(W\) of weight 100 N is attached to one end of each of two parallel light elastic strings. One string is of natural length 0.4 m and has modulus of elasticity 20 N ; the other string is of natural length 0.6 m and has modulus of elasticity 30 N . The upper ends of both strings are attached to a horizontal ceiling and \(W\) hangs in equilibrium at a distance \(d \mathrm {~m}\) below the ceiling (see diagram). Find \(d\).
