A metallic rod 1 cm long with a square cross-section is heated through 1°C. If Young's modulus of elasticity of the metal is E and the mean coefficient of linear expansion is alpha per degree Celsius, then the compressional force required to prevent the rod from expanding along its length is : (Neglect the change of cross sectional area)

Thermal expansion in form of change in length 
l2 = l1(1+alpha*t)
Young’s modulus = E 
E = (F/A)/(l/L)
E = FL/Al
L = l + del l 
E = F (l+del l )/A* del l 
Find the value of F 
F = EA(alpha *t)/(1+ alpha *t)
