A compressive force, $F$ is applied at the two ends of a long thin steel rod. It is heated, simultaneously, such that its temperature increases by $\Delta \mathrm{T}$. The net change in its length is zero. Let $l$ be the length of the rod, $\mathrm{A}$ its area of cross-section, $Y$ its Young’s modulus, and $\alpha$ its coefficient of linear expansion. Then, $\mathrm{F}$ is equal to:

Question:

A compressive force, $F$ is applied at the two ends of a long thin steel rod. It is heated, simultaneously, such that its temperature increases by $\Delta \mathrm{T}$. The net change in its length is zero. Let $l$ be the length of the rod, $\mathrm{A}$ its area of cross-section, $Y$ its Young’s modulus, and $\alpha$ its coefficient of linear expansion. Then, $\mathrm{F}$ is equal to:

1. $l^{2} \mathrm{Y} \alpha \Delta \mathrm{T}$

2. $l \mathrm{AY} \alpha \Delta \mathrm{T}$

3. $\mathrm{AY} \alpha \Delta \mathrm{T}$

4. $\frac{\mathrm{AY}}{\alpha \Delta \mathrm{T}}$
