A wooden wheel of radius is made of two semi-circular parts (see figure). The two parts are held together by a ring made of a metal strip of cross-sectional area and length . is slightly less than . To fit the ring on the wheel, it is heated so that its temperature rises by and it just steps over the wheel. As it cools down to the surrounding temperature, it presses the semi-circular parts together. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is a and it's Young’s modulus is , the force that one part of the wheel applies on the other part is :
