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 - Initial length of the rod, \( L = 100 \, \text{cm} \) - Change in length, \( \Delta L = 0.19 \, \text{cm} \) - Initial temperature, \( T_1 = 0^\circ C \) - Final temperature, \( T_2 = 100^\circ C \) ### Step 2: Calculate the change in temperature The change in temperature, \( \Delta T \), is given by: \[ \Delta T = T_2 - T_1 = 100^\circ C - 0^\circ C = 100^\circ C \] ### Step 3: Use the formula for linear expansion The formula for linear expansion is: \[ \Delta L = \alpha \cdot L \cdot \Delta T \] where \( \alpha \) is the coefficient of linear expansion. ### Step 4: Rearrange the formula to solve for \( \alpha \) Rearranging the formula gives: \[ \alpha = \frac{\Delta L}{L \cdot \Delta T} \] ### Step 5: Substitute the known values into the equation Substituting the known values: \[ \alpha = \frac{0.19 \, \text{cm}}{100 \, \text{cm} \cdot 100^\circ C} \] ### Step 6: Calculate \( \alpha \) Calculating \( \alpha \): \[ \alpha = \frac{0.19}{10000} = 1.9 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per} \, ^\circ C \] ### Step 7: Calculate the coefficient of cubical expansion The coefficient of cubical expansion \( \gamma \) is related to the coefficient of linear expansion by: \[ \gamma = 3\alpha \] Substituting the value of \( \alpha \): \[ \gamma = 3 \times 1.9 \times 10^{-5} = 5.7 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per} \, ^\circ C \] ### Step 8: Conclusion Thus, the coefficient of cubical expansion of the silver rod is: \[ \gamma = 5.7 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per} \, ^\circ C \] ### Final Answer The correct option is: **Option 1: \( 5.7 \times 10^{-5} \, \text{per} \, ^\circ C \)** ---
