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 $\alpha_{copper}$ = $17 \times {10^{ - 6}}per\,^\circ C$)
