Under the same load,wire $A$ having length $5.0 \, m$ and cross-section $2.5 \times 10^{-5} \, m^2$ stretches uniformly by the same amount as another wire $B$ of length $6.0 \, m$ and a cross-section of $3.0 \times 10^{-5} \, m^2$ stretches. The ratio of the Young's modulus of wire $A$ to that of wire $B$ will be

$A$ steel rail of length $5\,m$ and area of cross-section $40\,cm^2$ is prevented from expanding along its length while the temperature rises by $10\,^{\circ}C$. If the coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus of steel are $1.2\times10^{-5}\,K^{-1}$ and $2\times10^{11}\,N/m^2$ respectively,the force developed in the rail is approximately:
