Assume coefficient of linear expansion of the steel to be constant over the required temperature range : alpha_("steel")=1.20xx10^(-5)K^(-1) .

The coefficient of linear expansion 'alpha ' of a rod of length 2 m varies with the distance x from the end of the rod as alpha = alpha_(0) + alpha_(1) "x" where alpha_(0) = 1.76 xx 10^(-5) "^(@)C^(-1)"and" alpha_(1) = 1.2 xx 10^(-6)m^(-1) "^(@)C^(-1) . The increase in the length of the rod. When heated through 100^(@)C is :-

Obtain relation between coefficient of volume expansion (alpha_(V)) and coefficient of linear expansion (alpha_(l)) .

In a vernier callipers the main scale and the vernier scale are made up different materials. When the room temperature increases by DeltaT^(@)C , it is found the reading of the instrument remains the same. Earlier it was observed that the front edge of the wooden rod placed for measurement crossed the N^(th) main scale division and N + 2 MSD coincided with the 2nd VSD. Initially, 10 VSD coincided with 9MSD. If coefficient of linear expansion of the main scale is alpha_(1) and that of the vernier scale is alpha_(2) then what is the value of alpha_(1)//alpha_(2) ? (Ignore the expansion of the rod on heating)

Two rods each of length L_(2) and coefficient of linear expansion alpha_(2) each are connected freely to a third rod of length L_(1) and coefficient of expansion alpha_(1) to form an isoscles triangle. The arrangement is supported on a knife-edge at the midpoint of L_(1) which is horizontal. what relation must exist between L_(1) and L_(2) so that the apex of the isoscles triangle is to remain at a constant height from the knife edge as the temperature changes ?

A liquid with coefficient of volume expansion gamma is filled in a container of a material having coefficient of linear expansion alpha . If the liquid overflows on heating, then

A bimetallic strip of thickness d and length L is clamped at one end at temperature t_(1) . Find the radius of curvature of the strip if it consists of two different metals of expansivity alpha_(1) and alpha_(2) (alpha_(1) gt alpha_(2) ) when its temperature rises to t_(2) "^(@)C .
