Assume that one early morning when the temperatures in `10^(@)C,` a driver of an automobile gets his gasoline tank which is made of steel, tilled with `75` L of gasoline, which is also at `10^(@)C.` During the day, the tempaerature rises to `30^(@)C,` how much gasoline will overflow ?
(Given, `alpha ` for steel `=1.2xx 10^(-5)"^(@)C^(^1), gamma ` for gasoline
`=9.5xx10^(-4)"^(@)C^(-1))`
