A large steel wheel is to be fitted on a shaft of the same material . At `27^@C`, the outer diameter of the shaft is 8.70 cm and the diameter of the central hole in the wheel is 8.69 cm. The shaft is cooled using 'dry ice'. At what temperature of the shaft does the wheel slip on the shaft? Assume coefficient of linear expansion of the steel is to be constant over the required temperature range : `alpha_(steel) = 1.20 xx 10^-5 K`.
