$A$ brass disc fits snugly in a hole of a steel plate. The disc can be loosened from the hole if the system:

  • A
    Is first heated then cooled
  • B
    Is first cooled then heated
  • C
    Is heated
  • D
    Is cooled

The coefficients of linear expansion of brass and steel are ${\alpha _1}$ and ${\alpha _2}$ respectively. If we take a brass rod of length ${l_1}$ and a steel rod of length ${l_2}$ at $0^{\circ}C$,their difference in length $({l_2} - {l_1})$ will remain the same at any temperature if:

$A$ uniform metal bar of length $10 \ m$ with a crack at its midpoint is clamped between two rigid supports. The bar buckles upward due to a temperature rise of $40^{\circ} C$. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $2.5 \times 10^{-6} {}^{\circ} C^{-1}$,the maximum displacement of the midpoint of the bar is: (in $cm$)

We would like to make a vessel whose volume does not change with temperature. We can use brass and iron $\left( {{\gamma _{{\text{brass}}}} = 6 \times {{10}^{ - 5}}/K} \right.$ and $\left. {{\gamma _{{\text{iron}}}} = 3.55 \times {{10}^{ - 5}}/K} \right)$ to create a volume of $100 \, cc$. How can you achieve this?

The temperature of a wire of length $1 \, m$ and area of cross-section $1 \, cm^2$ is increased from $0^\circ C$ to $100^\circ C$. If the rod is not allowed to increase in length,the force required will be $(\alpha = 10^{-5} /^\circ C$ and $Y = 10^{11} \, N/m^2)$.

The area of cross-section of a railway track is $0.01\, m^2$. The temperature variation is $10^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the track is $10^{-5} /^{\circ}C$. The energy stored per meter in the track is ...... $J/m$. (Young's modulus of the material of the track is $10^{11}\, Nm^{-2}$)
