Force in the wire due to change in temperature is F=YAαΔt here Y is youngs modulus=2x1011N/m2; A is cross section area =4sq.mm;  α is coefficient of linear expansion=10-5/C  0 ; Δt is change in temperature =30-20=100C; substitute the given values in above equation F=2×1011×4×10−6×10−5×10 F=80N=tension in the wire
