The correct Answer is:
To find the coefficient of cubical expansion of the silver rod, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Length of the rod at 0°C, \( L = 100 \, \text{cm} \) - Increase in length, \( \Delta L = 0.19 \, \text{cm} \) - Initial temperature, \( T_1 = 0°C \) - Final temperature, \( T_2 = 100°C \) ### Step 2: Calculate the change in temperature The change in temperature, \( \Delta T \), can be calculated as: \[ \Delta T = T_2 - T_1 = 100°C - 0°C = 100°C \] ### Step 3: Use the formula for linear expansion The formula for linear expansion is given by: \[ \Delta L = \alpha \cdot L \cdot \Delta T \] Where: - \( \Delta L \) is the change in length, - \( \alpha \) is the coefficient of linear expansion, - \( L \) is the original length, - \( \Delta T \) is the change in temperature. ### Step 4: Rearrange the formula to solve for \( \alpha \) Rearranging the formula to find \( \alpha \): \[ \alpha = \frac{\Delta L}{L \cdot \Delta T} \] ### Step 5: Substitute the known values into the equation Substituting the values we have: \[ \alpha = \frac{0.19 \, \text{cm}}{100 \, \text{cm} \cdot 100°C} = \frac{0.19}{10000} = 0.000019 \, \text{cm/°C} \] Converting this to standard scientific notation: \[ \alpha = 1.9 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per °C} \] ### Step 6: Find the coefficient of cubical expansion \( \gamma \) The relationship between the coefficient of linear expansion \( \alpha \) and the coefficient of cubical expansion \( \gamma \) is: \[ \gamma = 3\alpha \] Substituting the value of \( \alpha \): \[ \gamma = 3 \times (1.9 \times 10^{-5}) = 5.7 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per °C} \] ### Step 7: Conclusion The coefficient of cubical expansion of the silver rod is: \[ \gamma = 5.7 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per °C} \] ### Final Answer: The correct option is option 1: \( 5.7 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per °C} \). ---
