To find the relation between the coefficients of linear expansion \(\alpha_1\) and \(\alpha_2\) and the initial lengths \(l_1\) and \(l_2\) of two rods such that the difference between their lengths remains constant when heated, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Linear Expansion**: The change in length \(\Delta L\) of a rod due to temperature change can be expressed as: \[ \Delta L = L_0 \cdot \alpha \cdot \Delta T ...
