The apparent coefficient of expansion of a liquid when heated in a brass vessel is $X$ and when heated in a tin vessel is $Y$. If $\alpha$ is the coefficient of linear expansion for brass, the coefficient of linear expansion of tin is ..........
$\frac{X+Y+3 \alpha}{3}$
$\frac{x+3 \alpha-Y}{3}$
$\frac{X+Y-2 \alpha}{3}$
$\frac{(X+Y-2 \alpha)}{2}$
The bulk modulus of copper is $1.4 × 10^{11}$ $Pa$ and the coefficient of linear expansion is $1.7 × 10^{-5} (C^o )^{-1}$. What hydrostatic pressure is necessary to prevent a copper block from expanding when its temperature is increased from $20^o C$ to $30^o C$
A solid metallic cube having total surface area $24\;m ^{2}$ is uniformly heated. If its temperature is increased by $10\,^{\circ} C$, calculate the increase in volume of the cube $\left(\right.$ Given $\left.: \alpha=5.0 \times 10^{-4}{ }^{\circ} C ^{-1}\right)$
The density of water at $20^oC$ is $0.998\ gm/cm^3$ and at $40^oC$ is $0.992\ gm/cm^3$. The mean coefficient of cubical expansion (in per ${}^oC$) is
A bar of iron is $10\, cm$ at $20°C$. At $19°C$ it will be ($\alpha$ of iron $= 11 \times 10^{-6}/°C$)
A metal rod of Young's modulus $Y$ and coefficient of thermal expansion $\alpha$ is held at its two ends such that its length remains invariant. If its temperature is raised by $t^{\circ} C$, the linear stress developed in it is
