NEET Solved Paper 2019 Question 45

Question: A copper rod of 88 cm and an aluminium rod of unknown length have their increase in length independent of increase in temperature. The length of aluminium rod is-[NEET 5-5-2019] $ ({\alpha _{Cu}}=1.7\times 10^{5}K^{1}and,{\alpha _{Al}}= $ $ ~2.2\times 10^{5}K^{1}) $

Options:

A) 88 cm

B) 68 cm

C) 6.8 cm

D) 113.9 cm

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  • $ \Delta {\ell_1}=\Delta {\ell_2} $ $ {\ell_1}{\alpha_1}={\ell_2}{\alpha_2} $ $ \frac{{\ell_1}}{{\ell_2}}=\frac{{\alpha_2}}{{\alpha_1}} $ $ \frac{88}{{\ell_a}}=\frac{2.2\times {10^{-5}}}{1.7\times {10^{-5}}} $ $ {\ell_a}=68cm $ Comment: In this question it should be difference in length instead of increase in length.
