Properties Of Solids And Liquids Question 414

Question: Coefficient of linear expansion of brass and steel rods are α1 and α2 . Lengths of brass and steel rods are 1 and 2 respectively. If (12) is maintained same at all temperatures, which one of the following relations holds good?

Options:

A) 3α12=α21

B) 4α12=α21

C) 2α12=α21

D) α11=α22

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] From question, (21) is maintained same at all temperatures hence changed in length for both rods should be same i.e., Δ1=Δ2 .

As we know, coefficient of linear expansion α=Δ0Δ

1α1ΔT=2α2ΔT1α1=2α2
