We are able to squeeze snow and make balls out of it because of
anomalous behaviour of water
large latent heat of ice
large specific heat of water
low melting point of ice
The coefficient of linear expansion of a crystalline substance in one direction is $2 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and in every direction perpendicular to it is $3 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of cubical expansion of crystal is equal to ........... $\times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$
Write relation between coefficient of linear and volume expansion.
An iron tyre is to be fitted on to a wooden wheel 1m in diameter. The diameter of tyre is $6\, mm$ smaller than that of wheel. The tyre should be heated so that its temperature increases by a minimum of ........ $^oC$ (the coefficient of cubical expansion of iron is ${3.6 \times 10^{-5} } °C^{-1}$)
If the length of a cylinder on heating increases by $2\%$, the area of its base will increase by ....... $\%$
Two marks on a glass rod $10\, cm$ apart are found to increase their distance by $0.08\, mm$ when the rod is heated from $0\,^oC$ to $100\,^oC$. A flask made of the same glass as that of rod measures a volume $1000\, cc$ at $0\,^oC$. The volume it measures at $100\,^oC$ in $cc$ is
