brass strip
steel strip
both strips has same coefficient of linear expansion
cannot be decided from given data
What will happen if a rod is tied with fixed supports rigidly at both ends and temperature is increased ?
When the temperature of a metal wire is increased from $0^{\circ} \,C$ to $10^{\circ}\, C$, its length increases by $0.02 \% .$ The percentage change in its mass density will be closest to:
Consider two thermometers $T_1$ and $T_2$ of equal length, which can be used to measure temperature over the range $\theta_1$ to $\theta_2$. $T_1$ contains mercury as the thermometric liquid, while $T_2$ contains bromine. The volumes of the two liquids are the same at the temperature $\theta_1$. The volumetric coefficients of expansion of mercury and bromine are $18 \times 10^{-5} \,K ^{-1}$ and $108 \times 10^{-5} \,K ^{-1}$, respectively. The increase in length of each liquid is the same for the same increase in temperature. If the diameters of the capillary tubes of the two thermometers are $d_1$ and $d_2$, respectively. Then, the ratio of $d_1: d_2$ would be closest to
A brass disc fits simply in a hole of a steel plate. The disc from the hole can be loosened if the system
