A meter-scale is made of copper and iron rods as shown in the figure. If the length of copper rod is `lambda` meter and the coefficients of linear expansion of copper and iron are `a_(1)` and `a_(2)` respectively, then the equvalent coefficient of linear expansin of the combined material of the meter-scale is
