$A$ 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 $\Delta T$. The net change in its length is zero. Let $l$ be the length of the rod, $A$ its area of cross-section, $Y$ its Young's modulus, and $\alpha$ its coefficient of linear expansion. Then, $F$ is equal to

  • A
    $l^2 Y \alpha \Delta T$
  • B
    $l A Y \alpha \Delta T$
  • C
    $A Y \alpha \Delta T$
  • D
    $\frac{A Y}{\alpha \Delta T}$

$A$ copper wire of length $1.0\, m$ and a steel wire of length $0.5\, m$ having equal cross-sectional areas are joined end to end. The composite wire is stretched by a certain load which stretches the copper wire by $1\, mm$. If the Young's moduli of copper and steel are respectively $1.0 \times 10^{11}\, N/m^2$ and $2.0 \times 10^{11}\, N/m^2$,the total extension of the composite wire is ........ $mm$.

The Young's modulus of a wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is $Y$. If the length is reduced to $\frac{L}{2}$ and radius is $\frac{r}{2}$,then the Young's modulus will be
