A rod of length $20\, cm$ is made of metal. It expands by $0.075cm$ when its temperature is raised from $0°C$ to $100°C.$ Another rod of a different metal $B$ having the same length expands by $0.045 \,cm$ for the same change in temperature. $A$ third rod of the same length is composed of two parts, one of metal $A$ and the other of metal $B$. This rod expands by $0.060\, cm$ for the same change in temperature. The portion made of metal $A$ has the length ........ $cm$

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
Why the coefficient of volume expansion is zero for water at $4\,^oC$?
On heating a uniform metallic cylinder length increases by $3 \%$. The area of cross-section of its base will increase by ........... $\%$
The coefficients of thermal expansion of steel and a metal $X$ are respectively $12 × 10^{-6}$ and $2 × 10^{-6} per^o C$. At $40^o C$, the side of a cube of metal $X$ was measured using a steel vernier callipers. The reading was $100 \,\,mm$.Assuming that the calibration of the vernier was done at $0^o C$, then the actual length of the side of the cube at $0^o C$ will be
A glass flask is filled up to a mark with $50\, cc$ of mercury at $18°C.$ If the flask and contents are heated to $38°C.$ ......... $cc$ mercury will be above the mark $?$ $(\alpha$ for glass is $ 9 × 10^{-6}{°}C^{-1}$ and coefficient of real expansion of mercury is $180 × 10^{-6}{°}C^{-1})$
