normal

A cylindrical metal rod of length $L_0$ is shaped into a ring with a small gap as shown. On heating the system

A

$x$ decreases, $r$ and $d$ increases

B

 $x$ and $r$ increases, $d$ decreases

C

$x$, $r$ and $d$ all increase

D

Data insufficient to arrive at a conclusion

Solution

On heating the system, $\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{r}$ and $d$ all increase, since the expansion of isotropic solids is similar to true photographic enlargement.
