$A$ force $F$ is applied on a wire of radius $r$ and length $L$,and the change in the length of the wire is $l$. If the same force $F$ is applied on a wire of the same material with radius $2r$ and length $2L$,then what is the change in the length of the second wire?

$A$ wooden wheel of radius $R$ is made of two semicircular parts (see figure). The two parts are held together by a ring made of a metal strip of cross-sectional area $S$ and length $L$. $L$ is slightly less than $2\pi R$. To fit the ring on the wheel,it is heated so that its temperature rises by $\Delta T$ and it just slips over the wheel. As it cools down to the surrounding temperature,it presses the semicircular parts together. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $\alpha$,and its Young's modulus is $Y$,the force that one part of the wheel applies on the other part is:
