If the temperature of a wire of length $2 \,m$ and area of cross-section $1 \,cm ^2$ is increased from $0^{\circ} C$ to $80^{\circ} C$ and is not allowed to increase in length, then force required for it is ............$N$ $\left\{Y=10^{10} \,N / m ^2, \alpha=10^{\left.-6 /{ }^{\circ} C \right\}}\right.$

Thermal expansion would be $=L \propto \Delta T$

Where $L=$ original length

$\alpha=$ coefficient of linear expansion

$\Delta T=$ Change in temperature

So substituting values

$\Delta L=2 \times 10^{-6} \times 80$

$\Delta L=1.6 \times 10^{-4} \,m$

Now $\Delta L=\frac{F L}{A Y}$

$\frac{\Delta L \times A Y}{L}=F$

Substitute values

$\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-4} \times 10^{10} \times 1}{2 \times 10000}=F$

$80 \,N = F$
