$A$ glass flask of volume $1 \text{ litre}$ is filled completely with mercury at $0^{\circ} C$. The flask is now heated to $100^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is $1.82 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and the coefficient of linear expansion of glass is $0.1 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$. During this process, the amount of mercury which overflows is (in $\text{ cc}$)

The coefficients of apparent expansion of a liquid when determined using two different vessels $A$ and $B$ are $\gamma_1$ and $\gamma_2$, respectively. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel $A$ is $\alpha$, the coefficient of linear expansion of the vessel $B$ is

When a liquid is heated in a copper vessel, its coefficient of apparent expansion is $6 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$. When the same liquid is heated in a steel vessel, its coefficient of apparent expansion is $24 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$. If the coefficient of linear expansion for copper is $18 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$, find the coefficient of linear expansion for steel.

The coefficient of apparent expansion of mercury in a glass vessel is $132 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$ and in a steel vessel is $114 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$. If $\alpha$ for steel is $12 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$,then that of glass is:
