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

Two straight metallic strips each of thickness $t$ and length $\ell$ are rivetted together. Their coefficients of linear expansions are $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$. If they are heated through temperature $\Delta T$, the bimetallic strip will bend to form an arc of radius
A cylindrical metal rod of length $L_0$ is shaped into a ring with a small gap as shown. On heating the system
Show that the coefficient of area expansion, $(\Delta A / A) / \Delta T,$ of a rectangular sheet of the solid is twice its Iinear expansivity, $\alpha_{1}$
A bimetallic strip is formed out of two identical strips, one of copper and other of brass. The coefficients of linear expansion of the two metals are ${\alpha _C}$ and ${\alpha _{B}}.$ On heating, the temperature of the strip goes up by $\Delta T$ and the strip bends to form an arc of radius of curvature $R.$ Then $R$ is
A pendulum clock (fitted with a small heavy bob that is connected with a metal rod) is $5\, seconds$ fast each day at a temperature of $15\,^oC$ and $10\,seconds$ slow at a temperature of $30\,^oC$. The temperature at which it is designed to give correct time, is ........ $^oC$
