An aluminium sphere of $20 \; cm$ diameter is heated from $0^{\circ} C$ to $100^{\circ} C$. Its volume changes by (given that coefficient of linear expansion for aluminium $\alpha_{Al} = 23 \times 10^{-6} \; /^{\circ} C$): (in $; cm^3$)

The difference in length between an iron rod and a copper rod is $10 \ cm$ at all temperatures. If ${\alpha _{Fe}} = 11 \times {10^{ - 6}} \, ^\circ C^{ - 1}$ and ${\alpha _{Cu}} = 17 \times {10^{ - 6}} \, ^\circ C^{ - 1}$,what are their lengths respectively?

Two rods are joined between fixed supports as shown in the figure. The condition for no change in the total length of the system with an increase in temperature is given by:
($\alpha_1, \alpha_2$ = linear expansion coefficients,$A_1, A_2$ = cross-sectional areas of rods,$Y_1, Y_2$ = Young's moduli)
