$A$ clock which keeps correct time at $20\,^{\circ}C$ has a pendulum rod made of brass. How many seconds will it gain or lose per day when the temperature falls to $0\,^{\circ}C$? $(\alpha = 18 \times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C)$

The length of a metallic rod is $5 \, m$ at $0^{\circ}C$ and becomes $5.01 \, m$ on heating up to $100^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is:

The side of a copper cube is $1 \ m$ at $0^{\circ} C$. What will be the change in its volume,when it is heated to $100^{\circ} C$? $[\alpha_{\text{copper}} = 18 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ} C]$

$A$ blacksmith fixes a circular iron frame on the wooden wheel of a bullock cart. The diameters of the wooden wheel and the circular iron frame are $5.012 \ m$ and $5 \ m$ respectively at $27^{\circ} C$. The temperature (in $^{\circ} C$) to which the iron ring must be heated so as to fit the wooden wheel is (Coefficient of linear expansion of iron $= 1.2 \times 10^{-5} \ ^{\circ} C^{-1}$).

$A$ steel tape gives correct measurement at $20^{\circ} C$. $A$ piece of wood is being measured with the steel tape at $0^{\circ} C$. The reading is $25 \ cm$ on the tape. The real length of the given piece of wood must be:

Three rods of equal lengths are joined to form an equilateral triangle $ABC$. $D$ is the mid-point of $AB$. The coefficient of linear expansion is $\alpha_1$ for the material of rod $AB$ and $\alpha_2$ for the material of rods $AC$ and $BC$. If the distance $DC$ remains constant for small changes in temperature,then:
