The difference in length between two rods $A$ and $B$ is $60 \ cm$ at all temperatures. If $\alpha_A = 18 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$ and $\alpha_B = 27 \times 10^{-6} /^{\circ}C$,then the lengths of rod $A$ and rod $B$ at $0^{\circ}C$ are respectively:

The volume of the bulb of a mercury thermometer at $0^\circ C$ is $V_0$ and the cross-section of the capillary is $A_0$. The coefficient of linear expansion of glass is $a_g$ per $^\circ C$ and the coefficient of cubical expansion of mercury is $\gamma_m$ per $^\circ C$. If the mercury just fills the bulb at $0^\circ C$,what is the length of the mercury column in the capillary at $T^\circ C$?

The area of a circular copper coin increases by $0.4 \%$ when its temperature is raised by $100^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the coin is:

The density of a substance at $0^{\circ}C$ is $10 \, g/cm^3$ and at $100^{\circ}C$,its density is $9.7 \, g/cm^3$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the substance is:

We would like to prepare a scale whose length does not change with temperature. It is proposed to prepare a unit scale of this type whose length remains,say $10 \ cm$. We can use a bimetallic strip made of brass and iron each of different length whose length (both components) would change in such a way that the difference between their lengths remains constant. If $\alpha_{\text{iron}} = 1.2 \times 10^{-5} \ K^{-1}$ and $\alpha_{\text{brass}} = 1.8 \times 10^{-5} \ K^{-1}$,what should be the length of each strip?

$A$ solid ball of metal has a concentric spherical cavity within it. If the ball is heated,the volume of the cavity will
