The gap between any two rails, each of length $l$ laid on a railway track equal $x$ at $27\,^oC$ . When the temperature rises to $40\,^oC$ , the gap close up. The coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the rail is $\alpha $ . The length $l$ of a rail at $27\,^oC$ will be
$\frac{x}{{26\alpha }}$
$\frac{x}{{13\alpha }}$
$\frac{2x}{{13\alpha }}$
$\frac{2x}{{14\alpha }}$
The volume of a gas at $20°C$ is $100 \,cm^3$ at normal pressure. If it is heated to $100°C$, its volume becomes $125\, cm^3$ at the same pressure, then volume coefficient of the gas at normal pressure is
Write relation between coefficient of linear and volume expansion.
Give value of coefficient of volume expansion at room temperature for ideal gas.
Write relation between $\alpha _l,\,\alpha _A$ and $\alpha _V$.
A student records the initial length $l$, change in temperature $\Delta T$ and change in length $\Delta l$ of a rod as follows :
S.No. | $l(m)$ | $\Delta T{(^o}C)$ | $\Delta l(m)$ |
$(1)$ | $2$ | $10$ | $4\times 10^{-4}$ |
$(2)$ | $1$ | $10$ | $4\times 10^{-4}$ |
$(3)$ | $2$ | $20$ | $2\times 10^{-4}$ |
$(4)$ | $3$ | $10$ | $6\times 10^{-4}$ |
If the first observation is correct, what can you say about observations $2,\,3$ and $4$.
