Correct Option - 2
Detailed Solution:

Thermal strain = Longitudinal strain = α Δ T

Longitudinal strain, δ = 1 0 5 * 1 0 2 = 1 0 3

Compressive stress = δ *  Young's Modulus

= 1 0 3 * 0 . 5 * 1 0 1 1

= 0 . 5 * 1 0 8

Compressive force = 0 . 5 * 1 0 8 * 1 0 3 = 0 . 5 * 1 0 5

= 5 * 1 0 4 * 1 0 1 0

=50*103 N
