A compressive force, $F$ is applied at the two ends of a long thin steel rod. It is heated, simultaneously, such that its temperature increases by $\Delta T$. The net change in its length is zero. Let $l$ be the length of the rod, $A$ its area of cross- section, $Y$ its Young's modulus, and $\alpha $ its coefficient of linear expansion. Then, $F$ is equal to
