The coefficient of apparent expansion of mercury in a glass vessel is $153 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and in steel vessel is $144 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$. If $\alpha$ for steel is $12 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C ,$ then that of glass is
$9 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$
$6 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$
$36 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$
$27 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$
Explain linear expansion. Write a unit.
A vertical column $50$ $cm$ long at $50°C$ balances another column of same liquid $60 \,cm$ long at $100°C$. The coefficient of absolute expansion of the liquid is
A glass flask of volume $200 \,cm ^3$ is just filled with mercury at $20^{\circ} C$. The amount of mercury that will overflow when the temperature of the system is raised to $100^{\circ} C$ is ........ $cm ^3$ $\left(\gamma_{\text {glase }}=1.2 \times 10^{-5} / C ^{\circ}, \gamma_{\text {mercury }}=1.8 \times 10^{-4} / C^{\circ}\right)$
A cylindrical metal rod of length $L_0$ is shaped into a ring with a small gap as shown. On heating the system
A hole is drilled in a metal sheet. At $27^{\circ}\,C$, the diameter of hole is $5\,cm$. When the sheet is heated to $177^{\circ}\,C$, the change in the diameter of hole is $d \times$ $10^{-3}\,cm$. The value of $d$ will be $...........$ if coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $1.6 \times$ $10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ}\,C$
