Assertion : When a solid iron ball is heated, percentage increase is its volume is largest. Reason : Coefficient of superficial expansion is twice that of linear expansion where as coefficient of volume expansion is three time of linear expansion.

Elastic Behaviour Of Solids

Assertion (A) : The active mass of pure solid and pure liquid is taken unity. Reason (R) : The active mass of pure solids and liquids depends on the density and molecular mass. The density and molecular of a mass of pure liquids and solids are constant.
