A steel scale measures the length of a copper wire as $80.0\,cm,$ when both are at $20^\circ C$ (the calibration temperature for scale). What would be the scale read for the length of the wire when both are at $40^\circ C$ $?$ (Given $\alpha_{steel} $ = $11 \times {10^{ - 6}}$per$°C$ and $\alpha_{copper}$ = $17 \times {10^{ - 6}}per\,^\circ C$)
$80.0096\,cm$
$80.0272\,cm$
$1\,cm$
$25.2\,cm$
A liquid with coefficient of volume expansion $\gamma$ is filled in a container of a material having the coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha$. If the liquid overflows on heating, then
What is areal expansion ? Give definition and unit of coefficient of areal expansion.
A glass flask of volume one litre at $0^oC$ is filled, level full of mercury at this temperature. The flask and mercury are now heated to $100°C$ ........... $cc$ mercury will spill out, if coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is $1.82 \times {10^{ - 4}}°C^{-1}$ and linear expansion of glass is $0.1 \times {10^{ - 4}}°C^{-1}$ respectively
Expansion during heating
Draw graph of $\alpha _V$ temperature.
