Stress $=\frac{ F }{ A } ;$ For elastic limit, stress $=3.5 \times 10^{10} N / m ^2$ (given).

Thus, $F=\left(\pi r^2\right) \times$ stress

$=3.14 \times\left(\frac{0.75}{2} \times 10^{-3}\right)^2 \times 3.5 \times 10^{10}$

$=3.14 \times \frac{(0.75)^2}{4} \times 3.5 \times 10^4=1.55 \times 10^4\,N$
