Given data:
$E_{steel}=2*10^5 N/mm^2$ (not given to be remembered)
$T_1=16 ^{\circ} C T_2=66 ^{\circ}$
$L=15m=15*1000mm$
$\alpha_{steel}=12*10^{-6}$ (Not given which mean to be remembered)
co-efficient of linear expansion
Now, change in temperature= $T=T_2-T_1=66-16=50^{\circ}$
Free expansion of rod is$ \delta=\alpha TL$
$=12*10^{-6}*50*15*1000$
=9mm
When the expansion is prevented of the rod,
temperature stress $P_{steel}=\alpha TE$
$=12*10^{-6}*50*2*10^{-5}$
$P_{steel}=120 N/mm^2$
