$A$ steel ring of radius $r$ and cross-sectional area $A$ is fitted onto a wooden disc of radius $R$ $(R > r)$. If Young's modulus is $Y$,then the force with which the steel ring is expanded is

  • A
    $AY\,\frac{R}{r}$
  • B
    $AY\,\left( \frac{R - r}{r} \right)$
  • C
    $\frac{Y}{A}\,\left( \frac{R - r}{r} \right)$
  • D
    $\frac{Yr}{AR}$
