In a certain arrangement, two cylinders of brass and steel are laid side by side and there is a constant difference of length between them at any temperature. Calculate the lengths of these cylinders at 0^@C if there is a difference of 5 cm between their lengths at all temperatures. alpha_("brass") = 0.0000019^@C^(-1) alpha_("steel") = 1.2 xx 10^(-6) C^(-1)

What should be the length of steel and copper rods at 0^(@)C that the length of steel rod is 5 cm longer than copper at all termperature? Given alpha_(Cu) = 1.7 xx 10^(5) .^(@)C^(-1) and alpha_(steel) = 1.1 xx 10^(5) .^(@)C^(-1) .

What must be the lengths of steel and copper rods at 0^(@)C for the difference in their lengths to be 10 cm at any common temperature? (alpha_(steel)=1.2xx10^(-5).^(@)K^(-1)and alpha_("copper")=1.8xx10^(-5).^(@)K^(-1))

The design of some physical instrument requires that there be a constant difference in length of 10 cm between an iron rod and a copper cylinder laid side by side at all temperature find their lengths (alpha_(Fe)=11 xx 10^(6).^(@)C^(-1),alpha_(Cu)=17 xx 10^(-6) .^(@)C^(-1))

A steel scale measures the length of a copper wire as 80.0 cm when both area at 20^(@)C (the calibration temperature for scale). What would be the scale read for the length of the wire when both are at 40^(@)C ? (Given alpha_("steel") = 11 xx 10^(-6) per ^(@)C and alpha_("copper") = 17 xx 10^(-6) per^(@)C )

A glass rod when measured with a zinc scale, both being at 30^(@)C , appears to be of length 100 cm . If the scale shows correct reading at 0^(@)C , then the true length of glass rod at 30^(@)C and 0^(@)C are :- ( alpha_("glass") = 8 xx 10^(-6)"^(@)C ^(-1), alpha_("zinc") = 26 xx 10^(-6) K^(-1) )

A composite rod made of copper (alpha =1.8xx10^-5 K^-1) and steel (alpha = 12xx10^-5 K^-1) is heated. Then

A heavy brass bar has projections at its ends as shown in the figure. Two find steel wires, fastened between the projections, are just taut (zero tension) when the whole systeam is at 0^(0)C . What is the tensile stress in the steel wires when the temperature of the systeam is raised to 300^(0)C ? Given that alpha_("brass") = 20 xx 10^(-6 ^(@))C^(-1) alpha_("steel") = 12 xx 10^(-6@)C^(-1) Y_("steel") = 2 xx 10^(11) Nm^(-2)

The length of s steel rod exceeds that of a brass rod by 5 cm. If the difference in their lengths remains same at all temperature, then the length of brass rod will be: ( alpha for iron and brass are 12xx10^(-6)//^(@)C and 18xx10^(-6)//^(@)C , respectively)
