38 feet longIt is not possible to give a definite answer without more detail.

How do you remove a load bearing wall?
Support the load whatever it is, roof, second floor, generally by putting a temporary beam under the joist inside of the existing wall, tear the wall out and put in a beam to carry the load. How big the beam needs to be depends on what the load is and how long the span is. Support the beam on each end and remove the temporary beam. These are the general steps, each project is going to be slightly different and has to be figured on it's own.
What size you beam is needed to span 40 feet if used only for roof support?
It depends on the roof load and the actual clear span. Off hand, I would guess htat you haven't given this much thought. A rule of thumb for a steel truss is one inch per foot of span or in your case 40 inches. If you want to use a steel I-beam, you can get that from a good municipal library from the steel beam institute, but you are going to need a crane to place it. Dieter in Cincinnati
