It is known that wax contracts on solidification. If molten wax is taken in a large vessel and it is allowed to cool slowly, then
It will start solidifying from the top downward
It will start solidifying from the bottom upward
It will start solidifying from the middle, upward and downward at equal rates
The whole mass will solidify simultaneously
Give the value of coefficient of volume expansion at $0\,^oC$ for ideal gas.
A pendulum clock keeps correct time at $0°C$. Its mean coefficient of linear expansions is $\alpha /^\circ C$, then the loss in seconds per day by the clock if the temperature rises by $t°C$ is
Two rods $A$ and $B$ of identical dimensions are at temperature $30\,^oC$. If a heated upto $180\,^oC$ and $B$ upto $T\,^oC$, then the new lengths are the same. If the ratio of the coefficients of linear expansion of $A$ and $B$ is $4:3$, then the value of $T$ is........$^oC$
Find out the increase in moment of inertia $I$ of a uniform rod (coefficient of linear expansion a) about its perpendicular bisector when its temperature is slightly increased by $\Delta T$.
In a vertical $U-$tube containing a liquid, the two arms are maintained at different temperatures ${t_1}$ and ${t_2}$. The liquid columns in the two arms have heights ${l_1}$ and ${l_2}$ respectively. The coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid is equal to
