The correct answer is: 6×108 Pa
The ball tries to expand its volume. But it is kept in the same volume. So it is kept at a constant volume. So the stress that arises is defined as:
B=PVV, now we know that change in volume due to thermal expansion, 
V=VγTVV=γT=3αT
B=P3αTP=3αT×B=3×10-5×107×2×1011P=6.42×108 Pa6×108 Pa
