Calculate the compressional force required to prevent the metallic rod of length l cm and cross-sectional area A cm2 when heated through t°C, from expanding along length wise. The Young's modulus of elasticity of the metal is E and mean coefficient of linear expansion is a per degree Celsius

a
EAαt
b
EAαt1+αt
c
EAαt1−αt
d
Elαt

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Natural length of the rod at t°C = l + lαtdecrease in natural length due to stress = ∆lΔ1−Δ=0;E=−F(l+Δ)AΔ;F=−EAat1+at
