$A$ metal rod is fixed rigidly at two ends so as to prevent its thermal expansion. If $L$, $\alpha$, and $Y$ denote the length of the rod, the coefficient of linear thermal expansion, and the Young's modulus of its material respectively, then for an increase in temperature of the rod by $\Delta T$, the longitudinal stress developed in the rod is
