Length of rod = L
Young modulus = Y
Linear coefficient of expansion = A
temperature difference (dT) = 1° C

we know,
strain = ∆L/L
from linear expansion concept ,
∆L = LAdT
so, strain = LAdT/L = AdT

if wire slowly stretched by ∆L on applying force F , then work done during stretching
W = 1/2 × F × ∆L
we know,
young's modulus = Stress/strain

so, W = 1/2 × Young's modulus × (strain)²
= 1/2 × Y × (AdT)²
= 1/2 × Y(A× 1)²
= YA²/2
hence,
workdone = YA²/2
