Question

The length of rod is 4 m. When subjected to heat, it expands to 10 m with a change in temperature of 6°C. Find the coefficient of expansions.

  1. 0.5
  2. 0.25
  3. 0.78
  4. 0.36

The correct answer is: 0.25


    The formula for coefficient of expansion is ∆L/L° = α [∆ T] .
    ∆L is change in length
    L° is initial length
    α is coefficient of expansion
    ∆T is change in temperature
    Here, by putting the given data in formula we will get the coefficient of expansion as 0.25 .
