Density of a substance at 00C  is  10.6gm/c.c and at  1000C is 10gm/c.c . Coefficient of linear expansion of solid is

a
0.0006/0C
b
0.0004/0C
c
0.0003/C  0
d
0.0002/C  0

detailed solution

Correct option is D

coefficient of volume expansion of solid is γ=ρ1−ρ2ρ2Δt here ρ1 is density at 00C=10.6gm/cc  ρ2 is density at 1000C=10 gm/cc Δt is change in temperature and γ=3α substitute these values in above equation ⇒3α=10.6-1010(100-0) α=0.63000 α=2×10−4=0.0002/0C
