A piece of metal weighs 46 g in air and 30 g in lipuid of density `1.24 xx 10^3 kg m^(-3)` kept at `27^0C`. When the temperature of the liquid is raised to `42^0C` the metal piece weights 30.5 g . The density of the liqued at `42^0 C` is `1.20 xx 10^3 kg m^(-3)`. Calculate the coefficient of linear expandsion of the metal.

Options

A. `3.316xx10^(-5)//^(@)C`
B. `2.316xx10^(-5)//^(@)C`
C. `4.316xx10^(-5)//^(@)C`
D. None of these

Answer

B
