The length of a metal rod at $30^{\circ} C$ is $30 \ cm$. If its temperature is raised to $105^{\circ} C$, its length is increased by $0.027 \ cm$. Then the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is

  • A
    $12 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$
  • B
    $12 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} C$
  • C
    $12 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$
  • D
    $12 \times 10^{-7} /{ }^{\circ} C$

$A$ circular copper ring at $30^{\circ} C$ has a hole with an area of $9.98 \ cm^2$. It is made to slip onto a steel rod of cross-sectional area of $10 \ cm^2$, by raising the temperature of both the ring and the rod simultaneously by an amount $\Delta T$. If the coefficients of linear expansion of copper and steel are $17 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and $11 \times 10^{-6} /{ }^{\circ} C$ respectively, then the minimum value of $\Delta T$ should be: (in $^{\circ} C$)

Each side of a cubic metal box is $a$ at room temperature $T$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal sheet is $\alpha$. The metal box is heated uniformly by a small temperature $\Delta T$,so that its new temperature is $T + \Delta T$. Calculate the increase in the volume of the metal box.
