The volume of a metal sphere increases by $0.24\%$ when its temperature is raised by $40^{\circ}C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is .......... $^{\circ}C^{-1}$.

$A$ sheet of steel is $40 \ cm$ long and $5 \ cm$ broad at $0^{\circ} C$. The surface area of the sheet increases by $1.4 \ cm^2$ at $100^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of linear expansion of steel is:

Why does the density of solid substances change with an increase in temperature?

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 $T^\circ C$?

An aluminium sphere of $20 \; cm$ diameter is heated from $0^{\circ} C$ to $100^{\circ} C$. Its volume changes by (given that coefficient of linear expansion for aluminium $\alpha_{Al} = 23 \times 10^{-6} \; /^{\circ} C$): (in $; cm^3$)

$A$ circular metallic ring of radius $R$ has a small gap of width $d$. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the metal is $\alpha$. If we increase the temperature of the ring by an amount $\Delta T$,then the width of the gap:
