$A$ metal rod of silver at $0^{\circ}C$ is heated to $100^{\circ}C$. Its length increases by $0.19\, cm$. If the original length of the rod is $100\, cm$,the coefficient of cubical expansion of the silver rod is:

  • A
    $5.7 \times 10^{-5} {^{\circ}C^{-1}}$
  • B
    $0.63 \times 10^{-5} {^{\circ}C^{-1}}$
  • C
    $1.9 \times 10^{-5} {^{\circ}C^{-1}}$
  • D
    $16.1 \times 10^{-5} {^{\circ}C^{-1}}$

Obtain the relation between the coefficient of volume expansion $(\alpha_V)$ and the coefficient of linear expansion $(\alpha_l)$.

The temperature of a metal strip having coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha$ is increased from $T_1$ to $T_2$ resulting in an increase of its length by $\Delta L_1$. The temperature is further increased from $T_2$ to $T_3$ such that the increase in its length is $\Delta L_2$. Given $T_3 + T_1 = 2T_2$ and $T_2 - T_1 = \Delta T$,the value of $\Delta L_2$ is . . . . . . .

Two rods $A$ and $B$ of identical dimensions are at temperature $30\,^{\circ}C$. If $A$ is heated up to $180\,^{\circ}C$ and $B$ up to $T\,^{\circ}C$,then the new lengths are the same. If the ratio of the coefficients of linear expansion of $A$ and $B$ is $4:3$,then the value of $T$ is........$^{\circ}C$.
