two rods P and Q of different metal, having the same area A and the same length L,are placed between two rigid walls. The coefficients of linear expansion P and Q are α1 and α2 respectively and their Young's moduli are Y1 and Y2.The temperature of both rods are now raised by T degrees.The new length of the rod P is?

Range of P = region of Q 
Length of P = Length of q =l 
Coefficient of Linear exapansion of P = α1 
Coefficient of Linear exapansion of Q = α2 
Youthful's moduli of P = Y1 
Youthful's moduli of Q = Y2 
New Length = Y2 α2l +T
