A rod of length 20 cm is made of metal. It expands by 0.075cm when its temperature is raised from 0oC to 100oC. Another rod of a different metal B having the same length expands by 0.045 cm for the same change in temperature. A third rod of the same length is composed of two parts, one of metal A and the other of metal B. This rod expands by 0.060 cm for the same change in temperature. The portion made of metal A has the length
detailed solution
Correct option is B
ΔL=L0αΔθRodA:0.075=20×αA×100⇒αA=752×10−6/∘CrodB:0.045=20×αB×100⇒αB=452×10−6/∘CFor composite rod: x cm of A and (20 - x) cm of B, we have0.060=xαA×100+(20−x)αB×100=x752×10−6×100+(20−x)×452×10−6×100On solving, we get x = 10 cm.Similar Questions
