Detailed Solution

Given,

The wire's initial length = 2L

The wire's final length is = 2L2+d2

Change in length of the wire, 

L=2L2+d2-2L

By applying Hooke's law,

Tπr2=YL2L

T=πr2Y2L2+d2-2L2L

T=πr2Y2L1+d2L212-12L

T=πr2Y1+d2L212-1

T=πr2Y1+12d2L2-1=πr2Yd22L2

Hence the correct answer is πr2Yd22L2.
