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 $100^{\circ} C$? $[\alpha_{\text{copper}} = 18 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ} C]$

The volume of a metal sphere increases by $0.24\%$ when its temperature is raised by $40^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is .......... $^{\circ}C^{-1}$.

The ratio of linear expansivity to the coefficient of superficial expansion of a rectangular sheet of a solid is

Brass and lead rods of length $80 \ cm$ are connected in parallel at $0^{\circ}C$. If they are heated to $100^{\circ}C$,what will be the difference in length between their ends in $mm$? (Given: $\alpha_{brass} = 18 \times 10^{-6} \ ^{\circ}C^{-1}$ and $\alpha_{lead} = 28 \times 10^{-6} \ ^{\circ}C^{-1}$)

Two rods,one of aluminum and another of steel,have initial lengths $ℓ_1$ and $ℓ_2$ respectively. They are joined to form a single rod of length $ℓ_1 + ℓ_2$. The coefficients of linear expansion for aluminum and steel are $\alpha_a$ and $\alpha_s$ respectively. If the increase in length of both rods is the same when the temperature is increased by $t \ ^\circ C$,find the ratio $\frac{ℓ_1}{ℓ_1 + ℓ_2}$.

$A$ clock pendulum made of invar has a period of $0.5 \, s$ at $20^{\circ} C$. If the clock is used in a climate where the temperature averages to $30^{\circ} C$, how much time does the clock lose in each oscillation? (For invar, $\alpha = 9 \times 10^{-7} /{ }^{\circ} C$, $g = \text{constant}$)
