Questions  

A crystal has linear coefficient of expansion  9×105,12×105,7×105/K along three mutually perpendicular directions the volume expansion coefficient is

a
27×10−5/K
b
26×10−5/K
c
21×10−5/K
d
28×10−5/K

detailed solution

Correct option is D

coefficient of volume expansion of crystal is γ=αx+αy+αz αx,αy,αz coefficient of linear expansion of crystal along mutually perpendicular directions γ=9×10−5+12×10−5+7×10−5 γ=28×10−5/K
