Young's modulus of elasticity of a material depends upon

$A$ metal bar of length $L$ and area of cross-section $A$ is clamped between two rigid supports. For the material of the rod,its Young's modulus is $Y$ and coefficient of linear expansion is $\alpha$. If the temperature of the rod is increased by $\Delta t ^\circ C$,the force exerted by the rod on the supports is

$A$ copper wire of length $2.4 \ m$ and an aluminum wire of length $0.7 \ m$, both having diameter $2 \ mm$, are connected end to end. When stretched by a load, the total elongation is found to be $0.6 \ mm$. The applied load is (Young's modulus of copper $= 1.2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$ and Young's modulus of aluminum $= 0.7 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$). (in $\pi \ N$)
