An iron tyre is to be fitted on to a wooden wheel 1m in diameter. The diameter of tyre is $6\, mm$ smaller than that of wheel. The tyre should be heated so that its temperature increases by a minimum of …….. $^oC$ (the coefficient of cubical expansion of iron is ${3.6 \times 10^{-5} } °C^{-1}$)

Obtain relation between coefficient of volume expansion $(\alpha _v)$ and coefficient of linear expansion $(\alpha _l)$.

A steel rail of length $5\,m$ and area of cross-section $40\,cm^2$ is prevented from expanding along its length while the temperature rises by $10\,^oC$. If coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus of steel are $1.2\times10^{-5}\, K^{-1}$ and $2\times10^{11}\, Nm^{-2}$ respectively, the force developed in the rail is approximately

If a cylinder of diameter $1.0\, cm$ at $30°C$ is to be solid into a hole of diameter $0.9997\, cm$ in a steel plate at the same temperature, then minimum required rise in the temperature of the plate is …….. $^oC$ (Coefficient of linear expansion of steel $ = 12 \times {10^{ – 6}}°C^{-1}$)

A unit scale is to be prepared whose length does not change with temperature and remains $20\,cm$, using a bimetallic strip made of brass and iron each of different length. The length of both components would change in such a way that difference between their lengths remains constant. If length of brass is $40\,cm$ and length of iron will be$…cm$

$\left(\alpha_{\text {iron }}=1.2 \times 10^{-5} K ^{-1}\right.$ and $\left.\alpha_{\text {brass }}=1.8 \times 10^{-5} K ^{-1}\right)$.
