The radius of a ring is R and its coefficient of linear expansion is `alpha.` If the temperature of ring increases by `theta` then its circumfrence will increase by

A

`pi R alpha theta`

B

`2 pi R alpha theta`

C

`piRalpha(theta)/2`

D

`pi R alpha(theta)/4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Original value of circumference, `l=2piR`
`therefore" " Deltal=lalphatheta=(2piR) alpha theta`
