Q.

A cube at temperature  00C  is compressed equally from all sides by an external pressure P. By x amount its temperature be raised to bring it back to the size it had before the external pressure was applied (The bulk modulus of the material of the cube is K and the coefficient of linear expansion is α ). Then value of ‘x’ is
