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`)

Define co-efficient of linear and cubical expansion and establish a relation between them . The length of a copper wire is measured 40 cm by a metal scale when both are at the temperature of 25^@C . What would be the length of wire measured by the same scale when both are at 55^@C ? (alpha "for metal" = 1.1 xx 10^(-7) @C^(-1) and alpha for copper = 1.7 xx 10^(-7)@c^(-1))
