medium
A copper rod of $88\; \mathrm{cm}$ and an aluminum rod of unknown length have their increase in length independent of increase in temperature. The length of aluminum rod is....$cm$
$( \alpha_{Cu}=1.7 \times 10^{-5}\; \mathrm{K}^{-1}$ and $\alpha_{Al}=2.2 \times 10^{-5} \;\mathrm{K}^{-1} ) $
A
$6.8$
B
$113.9$
C
$88$
D
$68$
(NEET-2019)
Solution
At any temperature
$(\Delta l)_{\mathrm{Cu}}=(\Delta l)_{\mathrm{Al}}$
$\ell_{1} \alpha_{1} \Delta \mathrm{T}=\ell_{2} \alpha_{2} \Delta \mathrm{T}$
$88 \times 1.7 \times 10^{-5}=\ell_{2} \times 2.2 \times 10^{-5}$
$\ell_{2}=68 \mathrm{cm}$
