Question
Two rods of lengths l1 and l2 are made of materials whose coefficients of linear expansion are α1 and α2. If the difference between the two lengths is independent of temperature, then
Answer: Option B
:
B
L1=l1[1+α1ΔT]L2=l2[1+α2ΔT]L1+L2=(l1+l2)+(ΔT)(l1α1−l2α2)IfL1−L2istobeindependentofΔT,thenl1α1−l2α2=0⇒l1l2=α1α2l1l2=α2α1
