The temperature of a wire of length \(1~\text{m}\) and an area of cross-section \(1~\text{cm}^2\) is increased from \(0^{\circ} \text {C}\) to \(100^{\circ} \text {C}.\) If the rod is not allowed to increase in length, the force required will be:
\((\alpha = 10^{-5}/ ^{\circ} \text {C} ~\text{and} ~Y = 10^{11} ~\text{N/m}^2)\)

1. \(10^3 ~\text{N} \) 2. \(10^4~\text{N} \)
3. \(10^5 ~\text{N} \) 4. \(10^9~\text{N} \)

The pressure that needs to be applied to the ends of a steel wire of length \(20~\text{cm}\) and area of cross-section \(0.5~\text m^2\) to keep its length constant when the temperature is raised by \(200^\circ \text{C}\) is:
(Young's modulus of elasticity \((Y)\) for steel is \(2\times10^{11}\) N/m2 and the coefficient of thermal expansion \((\alpha)\) is \(1.1\times10^{-5}~\text{K}^{-1})\)
1. \(3.2 \times 10^6~\text{Pa}\) 2. \(2.2 \times 10^8~\text{Pa}\)
3. \(4.4 \times 10^8~\text{Pa}\) 4. \(2.2 \times 10^9~\text{Pa}\)
