To determine Young's modulus of a wire, the formula is $Y = \frac{F}{A}.\frac{L}{{\Delta L}}$ where $F/A$ is the stress and $L/\Delta L$ is the strain. The conversion factor to change $Y$ from $CGS$ to $MKS$ system is

  • A

    $1$

  • B

    $10$

  • C

    $0.1$

  • D

    $0.01$

A rod of length $L$ at room temperature and uniform area of cross section $A$, is made of a metal having coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha {/^o}C$. It is observed that an external compressive force $F$, is applied on each of its ends, prevents any change in the length of the rod, when it temperature rises by $\Delta \,TK$. Young’s modulus, $Y$, for this metal is
