$A$ uniform rod of length $L$ pivoted at one end $P$ is freely rotated in a horizontal plane with an angular velocity $\omega$ about a vertical axis passing through $P$. If the temperature of the system is increased by $\Delta T$, the angular velocity becomes $\frac{\omega}{2}$. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the rod is $\alpha$ (where $\alpha \ll 1$), then $\Delta T$ will be:

When the temperature of a body increases from $T$ to $T+\Delta T$, its moment of inertia increases from $I$ to $I+\Delta I$. If $\alpha$ is the coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the body, then $\frac{\Delta I}{I}$ is (neglect higher orders of $\alpha$ ).

To increase the length of a metal rod by $0.4 \%$, the temperature of the rod is to be increased by (Coefficient of linear expansion of the metal $= 20 \times 10^{-6} \ {}^{\circ}C^{-1}$) (in $K$)

$A$ steel tape measures the length of a copper rod as $90 \ cm$ when both are at $10 \ ^oC$. What length (in $cm$) would the tape read for the length of the rod when both are at $30 \ ^oC$? $[\alpha_{st} = 1.2 \times 10^{-5} / ^oC$ and $\alpha_{cu} = 1.7 \times 10^{-5} / ^oC]$
