A rod of length $l$ and radius $r$ is held between two rigid walls so that it is not allowed to expand. If its temperature is increased, then the force developed in it is proportional to .........
$L$
$1 / L$
$r^2$
$r^{-2}$
The loss in weight of a solid when immersed in a liquid at $0^o C$ is $W_0$ and at $t^o C$ is $W$. If cubical coefficient of expansion of the solid and the liquid by $\gamma_s$ and $\gamma_l$ respectively, then $W$ is equal to :
Ratio among linear expansion coefficient ($\alpha$), areal expansion coefficient ($\beta$) and volume expansion coefficient ($\gamma$) is
A solid cube is first floating in a liquid. The coefficient of linear expansion of cube is $\alpha$ and the coefficient of volume expansion of liquid is $\gamma$. On increasing the temperature of (liquid + cube) system, the cube will sink if
A simple pendulum made of a bob of mass $m$ and a metallic wire of negligible mass has time period $2s$ at $T = 0\,^oC$ . If the temeprature of the wire is increased and the corresponding change in its time peirod is plotted against its temperature, the resulting graph is a line of slope $S$. If the coefficient of linear expansion of metal is $\alpha $ then the value of $S$ is
A brass wire $1.8\; m$ long at $27\,^{\circ} C$ is held taut with little tension between two rigid supports. If the wire is cooled to a temperature of $-39\,^{\circ} C ,$ what is the tension developed in the wire, if its diameter is $2.0 \;mm$ ? Co-efficient of Itnear expansion of brass $=2.0 \times 10^{-5}\; K ^{-1} ;$ Young's modulus of brass $=0.91 \times 10^{11} \;Pa$
